Thank you for the very nice piece you did on Bob (Snow), Steve (Kudo), Mary Ellen (Salzano) and me. We really appreciate your kind words about our Letters for the Troops campaign in the March 25 edition of The Times.
The project provides letters to Operation Yellow Ribbon, a nonprofit organization that ships care packages to our military service personnel. Each package includes a personal letter from home for the recipient.
The packages and letters were requested by commanding officers for their troops but that the names and addresses would remain private.
The names are not released to the public or posted on any website. (Some names and addresses appearing on websites has caused the Department of Defense to call for a stop to the practice.)
We were just trying to do a little something to help our troops’ morale last summer. We had no idea it would blossom into the project it has now become. It is gettting pretty big, but it is still so little for us to do, compared to what our militray men and women are doing for all of us.
Here is a very heartfelt thank you to you, and the staff at MH Times. You can help the support effort by logging onto www.YourMorganHill.com or www.OperationYellowRibbon.org Letters may be mailed to: Our Troops, P. O. Box 1179, Morgan Hill, CA 95038.
Gina Six and 3 others, Morgan Hill
