Bob and Organization

I received 2 huge boxes today and a huge box on the 25th (almost a week
ago). I am almost speechless. All I can say is Thank you so much on
behalf of myself and all our desert sailors here in Kuwait. I believe
your boxes were emptied out, and all the goodies were taken out by the
end of the day that they were received. 

Every one was surprised that
people that I and they don’t even know took the time to send them some
much needed supplies and goodies. The Socks, Power Bars, Air fresheners,
and Heath products along with every thing else was a huge hit. I called
dibs on the awesome Muli-tool. I read some of the news paper articles
that were written about you and your origination. It surprised me to
read that you were a former air dale in the navy like myself, only I
haven’t retired yet. I was also shocked to find that most of the stuff
you get is donated or taken out of pocket. Knowing this magnifies the
significance of what you have done for myself and my guys. Not only what
you have done for us, but what you and your group have done for America
and all her solders and sailors around the world. It’s unbelievable to
know that I grew up in Wesley Chapel and never got to meet you until I
left for Kuwait. It is also unbelievable to know that, I think I know
person that sent the boxes of cookies enclosed in your last package (who
lives in Land O’Lakes). I know God has blessed me and my command with
such caring and compassionate Americans like you and the people like you
who work with you. Please Bob, let them know that I thank them from the
bottom of my heart and all of us here are very thankful for there kind
donations and thoughtful items enclosed in each care package. May God
bless you and keep all of you.

Very Respectfully,
Rob
