"Dear Treat Any Soldier,
Please accept my sincere thanks on behalf of all members of the 506th Expeditionary Fire Department at Kirkuk Regional Air Base (Forward Operating Base Warrior), Iraq. We received several care packages from Treat Any Soldier, provided by The Kroger Company in Texas and Louisiana.
Each and every one of us greatly appreciates your generous support for the troops. Our unit is comprised of mostly Air Force Reserve members and 2- Active Duty members. We are a Fire & Emergency Services unit from reserve bases from across the USA. We have units from Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Ohio, and Washington State. Our active duty firefighters are from bases in Louisiana and England.
It's a great feeling to know to people take time out of their busy schedule to pack the boxes and ship them out. We're fortunate to have organizations like yours and businesses stepping forward to help out. You do not know how much it means to receive mail, especially packages. We realize the tough economical times businesses and families are having back home and we are grateful the donations keep pouring in.
Please pass on our thanks to all who helped and continue to support our troops all over the world.
Thank you again for your generous support."
