A reminder: Why I do it

December 30, 2008 by  

The following was received from a soldier and was posted to the Soldiers’ Angels Wingtip 2 Wingtip blog:

I would like to take this time to say thank you for all that you have done for me and other Soldiers like me. Thank you for your letters, cards, calling cards, heartfelt prayers and thoughts.

Our force, however strong, needs encouragement, especially when our will is weak. Your kindness has healed our sad souls and our longing for our homes.

With reminders every day that we are not alone …

We have you!

Thank you Soldiers Angels!

It makes my heart smile to see our efforts appreciated by those we love and support. Because of this, I’ll gladly keep doing what I’m doing … as long as it takes.

“May no soldier go unloved,
may no soldier walk alone,
may no soldier be forgotten,
until they all come home.”
– Patti Patton-Bader

    Normally being a day late and a dollar short, I just now read the quotation in your banner for the first time. I couldn’t agree with it more if my life depended on it. Thanks for putting it up there.

    Again late, I forgot to say that as a military retire I salute you for what you do for our current military personnel and may God bless you. My best wishes to you and your loved ones to enjoy a healthy, happy, and prosperous year in 2009.
