Momma Jodi,
Thank you so much for your Christmas present I received today and it was a wonderful surprise. Hope your new years was a great one mine was good no complaints here.
Jodi,
Thank you for your very kind words and thoughts. I have been pretty busy lately, one of our warriors was killed in action a few days before Christmas and we have been busy ensuring that he was properly honored for his sacrifice. Losing one of our brothers is very painful, but his legacy will live on inside all of us. There is a price to bear for freedom, and we are here to bear that burden. We are not alone and we know that, millions of great Americans and a few exceptional Americans like you stand behind us with enormous love and support and for that we are eternally grateful.
I wanted to apologize for not letting you know that I had received some packages from you over the past week or so, I did make sure the care items and goodies got out to the Marines with one exception. That was a very interesting box of chocolates that you sent. That was very thoughtful of you; however, let's not send anymore surprises like that. I almost pushed the box out without checking inside it, which would have made me the greatest SgtMaj ever in the eyes of the boys, and chances are they would have made themselves sick trying to eat enough chocolate to catch a buzz. No big deal, actually pretty humorous.
Thanks for everything, and look forward to hearing from you again,

Thank you all for your support in sending boxes to our Heroes. These letters are for you as much as they are for me. May God bless you beyond your wildest imaginations. Have a very wonderful 2009.

What kind of chocolate was it? Liquored up? How funny. God bless them!!
yeah. I couldn't send his favorite rum so I sent the chocolate and told him that Capt. Morgan sent his regards and was sending recon to scout the area. Evidently the area was friendly and recon was well received.
