Crewmembers from the 817th Expeditionary Airlift Squadron and their Australian forces counterparts upload an Australian Army CH-47 helicopter onto a C-17 Globemaster III at a deployed location in Southwest Asia on Sunday, Mar. 12, 2006. The C-17 is from McChord Air Force Base, Wash. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Joshua Strang) Full StoryA Soldiers' Angel Gets a Package
Received by Soldiers' Angels:
hi, i just want to share the news with you (since i adopted my soldier through you)...
my soldier sent me a package.... yes - she sent me a package.. i thought i was the one that was suppose to send her things...
anyways, she sent me an american flag that flew on their ship on feb 25th, 2006. the flag was dedicated to me, there was a certificate with the flag. she was thanking me for all i've done. it was one of the greatest gifts i've received. not only it was nice to know she appreciated me, i felt so honored that she had the flag dedicated to me. she also had good news to share, she was on her way home, and asked for us to remain in contact with one another.
thanks soldiers angels for everything.... thanks for allowing me to make a difference for a stranger, whom is a hero to me, and now a new friend of mine.
sincerely,
toni

Granted, this level of response is a rarity with adopted Heroes - but the rewards for being involved in actively supporting our Heroes are many. I count myself as inordinately privileged to have had the opportunity to thank so many Heroes personally - adoptees, and those I've written to as part of the Letter Writing Team.
Soldiers' Angels is always in need of people who want to show their support of our Heroes - more and more names are submitted every day:
HI. I AM INQUIRING ABOUT BEING ADOPTED BY FAMILY IN THE STATES.MANY PEOPLE HERE GET MAIL AND I DO NOT GET MUCH SO I WAS WONDERING ABOUT HOW TO GET BOXES OF THINGS THAT I MIGHT NEED OR JUST MAIL FROM HOME SHOWING THAT PEOPLE STILL CARE ABOUT THE SOLDIERS? THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING THAT YOU ARE DOING.
I am a single mom deployed to Iraq.I don't have any special needs or requests it would just be wonderful
to receive letters from people who are stateside.Thank you for all you do to support the effort!
I want to thank you for what you are doing for us over here. We appreciate everything everyone back at
home with the support and love that we need out here. Without that our jobs over here will be very hard. Thank you.
Well this is the second time I have been deployed to Iraq in less than a year. All I really request is stuff
like noodles candy and fantasy science fiction books. Stuff like that helps a soldier get through
deployments.I would like to say to my angel that I appreciate you taking the time out to help a soldier you dont even know when you didnt have to. Thank you for that and your support.
I am a member of a surgical medical company that is always working long hours. Words of encouragement are always in need. Could use a few extra letters for the wounded to boost their morale. Thanks for all your doing. Keep up the good work.
hi how are you doing i'm doing ok i can't wait to get home i don't care what anyone sends me just as long as i can get some more mail coming in i don't get much mail here that is why i done this hopeing that i can get some one else to wright to me i was told about this from one of my guys in my unit
I really dont have any specific requests any thing would make me happy. All I want to know is that
someone is thinking of me
What's involved? See my posts here and here. To find out more, or to adopt, visit the Soldiers' Angels website.
Not able to adopt, but you'd like to donate? Learn more about Soldiers' Angels special operations - including Operation VALOUR-IT, and Wings of Hope, my adopted Airman's program. Or consider purchasing a copy of Soldier's Angel Holly Aho's book for a Hero.

Some time ago, I posted some links to music in support of our Heroes.
Added to that list is Kory Brunson (thanks to Eileen for passing this along):
Hello. My name is Kory Brunson. I'm a Denver artist with a song called "We Know You're Out There (A Message To Our Troops)".
I wanted to make sure you were aware of the song, and that I've made it available as a free download for anyone who wants it at www.korybrunsonband.com.
Here's a 30 second sample.
Hope you're well. And THANK YOU ALL at Soldiers Angels for YOUR support of our troops!!!!!!!!
Best regards,
Kory Brunson
