For all good Sailors to twist the blade.
Ooh, that’s got to sting.
Go Navy, Beat Everybody.
I don’t know where to start. I was thrilled and truly appreciative of the laptop donation that Soldiers Angels sent. My neurology team is ecstatic with the progress that I have made, yet we all temper our excitement as I still have a long recovery ahead. Due to the great hearts (sponsors, donors, volunteers and others too numerous to mention) within Soldiers Angels I have become more mobile in my rehabilitation and the laptop is absolutely one of the tools that I have in my recovery toolbox. I use it to keep current on my schedule and have several applications that assist with recovery.
I know that my recovery has been aided by the cards, letters, and notes sent by your Angels. I love to read them and have started to send Thank You’s to many of them. I just want you and everyone to know that your organization is a Godsend to Soldiers. Please send this note of Thanks to the appropriate personnel, and if there is anything I can do to help, let me know.
God Bless You and God Bless America.

Amen, brother.
And don’t forget the dog!
I’m not giving up hope yet.
Why does it have a “Navy/Coast Guard” wedge AND a “USCG” wedge?
Stinkin’, we don’t need any help: we’ll win this one on our own!!
[...] back – the apprentices returned to their shackles desks and as Lex suggests , time to twist the knife. In that spirit (friendly competition of course – no munging up [...]
1390, be nice to the Naval Auxiliary. They are like our version of the Civil Air Patrol…
Thank you so much for featuring that lovely letter from a wounded warrior. Next to Chuck’s comment that using a voice-controlled laptop was “The first time I felt whole since I woke up in Landstuhl,” it’s my favorite Valour-IT thank you.
Sorry about the errant label (Navy/USCG). We’re working on it.
Paul,
I’m Navy, but working with the Army folks for 4 years has me secretly pulling for my Army buds to plus up. Only competition we got going on this one
Lex, Same as last year…I made my donation to the senior service ( that’s The United States Army, Lex Babes) …and speaking of last year…if I recall correctly ( which of course, I absolutely always do) a mid-campaign marketing shift was taken based on a clever/sly …nay stupenduously ingenious suggestion made to you by an “occasional reader” …to whit…” replace the Dog with a Cat along with a promise to shoot the Cat if a donation is made”…worked then…it should work now . Best
We’re running a little behind the Army at this point. I finally got around to donating but it took a lot of coordination to get myself, my wallet and my computer all together. Afterwords, we decided to watch a movie and settled on Serenity…..best line of movie history, “I swallowed a bug.”
Happy Thanksgiving to one and all.
