$600 worth of food, supplies, games, toys, etc. for Marines and local children in Ramadi. Tim organized this all, collecting money, purchasing, packing and shipping. It took two shipping boxes to hold it all, and they're on their way to Tim's Corpsman friends in Iraq.
A great hot and spicy snack.

ORLANDO, Fla. – Dozens of Soldiers from the 143d Sustainment Command (Expeditionary) joined members of veteran services organizations to honor the families of fallen heroes during the 6th Annual Operation: Love Letters event conducted March 24, 2018, at St. John Vianney Catholic School in Orlando.
Hosted by the Orlando Survivor Outreach Services, a U.S. Army community support program dedicated to helping families cope with grief from losing loved ones who have served their country. Operation: Love Letters provides a forum of fellowship for family members to share their memories of the deceased through food, games, music, arts and crafts. Conceived in Orlando in 2013, this local activity has transformed into a U.S. Army sponsored flagship program for the entire nation with international reach.
The event commenced with full military honors as the 143d ESC’s color guard and the Patriot Riders Guard led the opening ceremony in the Pledge of Allegiance and the Star-Spangled Banner. The color guard then set up a Fallen Comrade table and conducted a “13 Folds” ceremony to honor all American service members who made the ultimate sacrifice.
Miles Espaillat, the youngest of three sons of Maj. Gen. Francisco Espaillat, lit the candle on the Fallen Comrade Table. Espaillat’s father served as the commanding general of the 143d ESC from 2014-2016. He died of a heart attack April 7, 2017, while serving as general officer for the Office of the Chief of the Army Reserve.
After the opening ceremony, the family members shared their most cherished memories of their son, daughter, parent or spouse. Some brought framed photos while others baked their loved ones’ favorite dessert. The 143d ESC Soldiers joined several family members in creating crafts and writing love letters.
Representatives from the USO, Veterans Affairs, Operation Military Matters and the Orlando Vet Center also attended the festivities to share the many free resources such as grief counseling, care packages, and financial assistance tailored to families coping with the loss of a loved one.
Operation: Love Letters concluded with its most cherished tradition as Soldiers, families and volunteers gathered at the school’s courtyard to release dozens of balloons with messages addressed to their fallen heroes.

I came home from my morning saturday class to find this package at my doorstep. I had no idea what it was, or any hint of what Angel would be sending me. The second I opened it, I automatically burst into tears. Angel, one of the most amazing women in the world, put together a beautiful and brilliant care package for me. And doing this with a theme is asking a very important question! Every single item included in my package is something I would see in the store and fall in love with instantly. I love you, Angel. You are kind beyond words, and loving to the point of no comparison. And of course, the answer is YES! I would love to be your bridesmaid! A thousand times yes! I can't wait to help make your big day a perfect memory you will cherish for a lifetime! Let's get this party started!

RALEIGH, N.C. –A staffer with Military Missions in Action Fill the Footlocker Program prepares care packages for deployed North Carolina National Guard Soldiers. The MMIA teamed with BB&T’s Light House Project, a community service program, to give the troops a taste of home. “It is nice to give back to those who supported me when I deployed,” said BB&T Lead Identity Access Management Developer Ricky Blue, also an Army Chief Warrant Officer 2 in the North Carolina National Guard who returned from deployment with NCNG’s 113th Sustainment Brigade last year. The BB&T volunteers provided the planning, labor and bought the gifts but MMIA provided the transport and shipping through donations for postage. “The program brings together businesses and volunteers for a wonderful cause,” said Mendy Rausch, MMIA executive assistant.

Today at work, this care package was placed next to me while I wasn't looking. One minute nothin', then I turn & whabam! A complete, one-of-a-kind, custom-made, ready-to-travel kit!
Probably the most creative & thoughtful gift ever.
Lucky me!
