Capt. McClain,
“I received my new kit today and, as always, it is such a wonderful thing to know people still care about us. Every time I get a kit I send the postcard back thanking the people who are supporting the program. I am getting old and I have severe arthritis in my entire body, and these kits surely do help me keep my attitude and spirits lifted, and exercise program going. I thank everyone who supports this program. You don’t know how much it can mean to us disabled veterans. I always check pen pal on the post card – I haven’t yet received a reply, but that is OK. I know the program is there for us. I know many of my fellow veterans appreciate being able to work with the kits in the VA hospitals and even at home as I am, being basically homebound. It is such a wonderful thing that you all are doing!!! Keep up the good work and a big HOORAH! Love the website, as it is very informative. Helps me know that myself and all my brothers and sisters in arms are not forgotten and are appreciated. Before I became basically housebound, I traveled extensively around the United States and proudly wore my SEAL hat. I received many thank you’s for my service. It is always good to get an “atta boy” from the civilians on the street. Wasn’t always that way; back in the days of the Vietnam conflict. I think that the American people are backing us much more nowadays and this is a good thing! The United States may not always be right, but our military is always the best!”
