Hey everyone,
as i've said in another forum, for those of you who didn't read it. Thanks again for everything, you have been great in helping me learn more about bow hunting. It really has become a huge passion, and being here in iraq, we need something to keep our minds off the crap that goes on here everyday. This past month has been real rough with the Improved Explosive Devices in sector, heck my vehicle has been hit twice. This is really one thing i look forward to anytime i get a chance to get to the computer, so again thanks, also to everyone who has sent magazines, games, movies,ect. ya'll have been great. And so you know everyone that sends somthing will get a letter back from me that is my promise. Well I look forward to and future posts.

I have a friend that just got back from Iraq for a short leave. He goes back to Ft. Bliss for some medicals and ,hopefully, will be back here in time for bowseason. I have the utmost respect for you guys, and don't ever seem to find words that are adequate enough to express how much you are appreciated. I have a ton of hunting videos thatIwould be happy to send if you could just let me know how and where.God be with you guys and come home safe. Thank you for your sacrifice.

I just want to thank you for defending our country. Without you and your fellow soldiers, we would not have the opportunity to hunt this free land like we do. If you need anything for your bow, just let me know. You can send me a pm or just respond to this post. If I have it...it is yours. I have a lot of bow hunting things, so just let me know. Again, thank you for all that you are doing!!!!

I spoke with my wife , and we'll be going through the movies , video games , andhunting magstomorrow . My Son will be doing the same , so we should be able to have a fairly decent "care package" put together shortly . My younger brother served in DS1 , so I know to send some Kool-Aid™ , but are there any other creature comforts that y'all would like ? BTW , a short list of "no-no items" would be valuable , some folks get a little extra generous where y'all service folk are concerned and they might send a no-no with the best of intentions .[:-]

Keep your spirits high and your heads low , we love and support you all . Come home safe and bringthe rest of your company with you .
