Letters to Soldiers

As we approach the holidays, I often think about those people who are overseas in the military. Many of these soldiers receive letters and packages from home. Some soldiers do not receive much if anything. I thought it would be nice to have our students write a letter to the troops. These letters will be sent to my cousin, Corporal Thomas Duffany. He is in the Marine Corp and is currently serving overseas on the U.S.S Kearsarge. He will disperse them to the men and women in his unit once they arrive. They should receive them just in time for the holiday season. All students will write a letter, but you may request that it not be sent if you so choose. Simply send in a note to me at the school. The students will not provide their full name on the letter, just their first name.
