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!

Students from St. Stephens Lutheran School turn donated goodies from North Carolina businesses into care packages at Hackney Service Merchandisers in Hickory, North Carolina for deployed North Carolina National Guard Soldiers via the NCNG Soldiers & Airmen Assistance Fund, Jan. 31, 2018. Members of Soldiers and Airmen Fund and retired NCNG leaders Air National Guard Col. Steven Martin and Army National Guard Sgt. Maj. Dennis Roach and Col. Drew Goodwin helped plan the event with Hickory businessman and retired Army Reserve Command Sgt. Maj. Dean Cline Sr. Hackney provided storage space for the $250,000 worth of snacks and comfort items. The 23 St. Stephens' students made quick work of loading up the nearly 500 care packages soon to be shipped to deployed NCNG Soldiers worldwide. Cline used years of experience in shipping and his business contacts to get donations for the packages. "You have to know how it works, connections mean everything," said Cline. In less than 2 hours the last package is taped shut, one for each deployed Soldier. (U.S. Army National Guard Photo by Sgt. 1st Class Robert Jordan / Released)

From one of my best friends in the world who brought this up all the way from Monterrey, Mexico, and shipped it from Texas. When she asked if there was anything in particular that I'd like, I said Mexican hot sauce!!! When I asked her what she wanted, she said Gazebo Room salad dressing, which hopefully will arrive by tomorrow. I can't wait to crack these babies open!

Today as I was sending off some pumpkin cookies to a friend; I picked up some APO/FPO boxes figuring in the next few weeks we would send some out to my BIGG Brother, some of his military brothers, and eventually to my fly boy who will be going over (again) sooner then I like to admit.
When my kiddos saw the boxes in the trunk they asked if we could go to the bank and get money out so we could buy some things. The money in the bank account is money they have earned from collecting cans, doing odd jobs for neighbors & family, and half of thier birthday money. They have been saving up for a couple of years for a trampoline. Apparently they thought this was more worthy of thier money.
While at the store we picked up trail mixx, jerky, powdered gatorade packs, gum, personal items, and a short sleeve underarmor style Steelers shirt (which was Avery's idea, because as she said "people never stop being Steelers fans, no matter where they are").
Each of the kiddos wrote a letter, drew pictures, or wrote a story to send in a second box that we are putting homemade cookies and what not in. I wish we could send more, I wish we could do more to show my brother and all of our service men that we are proud of them, we support them, and we are praying that God give them the emotional and physical strength to do thier job effectivly.
I was happy to hear that the APO/FPO boxes are flate rate, and are even $2.00 cheaper to send off this month (about $11). They can be picked up at your local Post Office for free. In order for the care packages to be recieved before Christmas they need to be postmarked before Dec 1 for priority, or nov 13 for standard rate. If you have the desire to send one or two off, please do not hesitate. If you simply need someone to send it to I have a list of about 15 guys from PA and Virginia that we were hoping to eventually send something off to.

A recent care package from home arrived with this tape on one side. It seems our package of tea and chocolates was deemed worthy of inspection by the Canadian Border Services Agency. This is the first time this has happened since we moved to Canada.
Thankfully, as expected from a professional and honest customs service, nothing was removed.
