Another thank you we received recently.
“Dear Operation: Quiet Comfort Team, I wanted to reach out to you and thank you for your kind gift of care items for the men and women of the US Armed Forces. Our team of volunteers at the American Red Cross Service to the Armed Forces had the privilege of helping to receive and distribute your wonderful donation. These care items will make a great difference in the lives of service members living and serving far from home and country. Please accept my profound gratitude on their behalf.”
We received this message and photos. Note the smiles!
“Sir/ma’am,
Thank you again for your thoughtful care packages.”

We received this email from the front:
“Dear Ken and Jan,
My name is QM1 Jonathan W., and I am the Leading Petty Officer for Navigation Division on USS Wasp (LHD-1). Two days ago, my crew received a care package from your organization. I want to thank you for everything you sent, and please know that I hold you in the highest regard. Doing my best to read the hand-written names of the people who prepared our package, please say HUGE thank you to Karen, Don, Kathy, Pam, Peggy, Maureen, Linda, Doreen and Sherri.
Anyway, the crew is very thankful and all of the items were evenly distributed. Not a single thing went to waste.
If you would consider sending more in the future, no changes are requested.
Thanks again, and Bless you all!”
