OC provides for basic hygiene along with a few items of comfort to combat troops
deployed to the remotest locations in the Global War on Terror...
those warriors "at the tip of the spear."

 
 

Thank You Notes from the Troops

OC gets notes of thanks directly from our troops and indirectly from supporters who have heard from the troops. In an effort for all of our supporters to share in these I will add notes as they arrive in my snail mail or email box. I will reduce their names to just their initials to protect the privacy of the sender. The notes are to both the OC supporters and the Knitting Corps supporters.

Mike,

Just wanted to let you know we got a bunch of care packages in the mail today from Operation Caregiver. :) You guys are awesome as always, and we are thankful for all you do for us.

God bless you in all that you do. Keep in touch!

"Dear N. & L.,

 I got the beanie and scarf that you made. Just know that I really liked them both. It's people like ya'll that are willing to take time out of your day to make a beanie and scarf for someone you don't even know. It's people like you that make me honored to fight for this country of ours and ensure that you live a life of happiness and freedom. I know every night I will sleep with them on to keep me warm in these chilling nights. Stay safe and have a wonderful Christmas & New Year.
We hope that this means as much to all of you, as it did to us.

Doc,

I just got back from battlefield circulation with the Colonel and I returned to many, many boxes.  I'll be pushing those out to our Battalions.  It will take a very long time, but it will get out.  Mail from many are flowing in with very little assets to move it out, but we'll move it out to our Warriors.  
 
Thank you so very much for all that you have sent and all those will enjoy it.

Merry Christmas!

SgtMaj XXX, USMC
