Submitted by: Mary Rietz on 01.08.10 6:39 AM Thank you so much for all that you do. Because of you my family is free. Thanks to you, we can bitch and moan as much as we want about what's going on in Washington, without reprisal or imprisonment. Because of you we can worship without fear anywhere we choose. Because of you we are free to do anything that's morally right. Thanks to you we are American. |

Submitted by: Inez Clarke on 01.07.10 5:53 PM Here we are, one week into 2010 and I hope you are well. The holidays are over and now it's back to business as usual. For you, it's always business as usual. There are times when we forget how much of a sacrifice you are making to serve our country. I see news clips of families saying goodbye as the servicemen leave for deployment. I am again reminded that without your loyalty and dedication, I would not be enjoying the life I have. More than words can ever say,"Thank you for your service." May you be home next holiday, celebrating with your families. Until then, may God bless and keep you safe. Inez Clarke Lady Lake, FL. |

My husband served in the Korean War in the Air Force so I can appreciate the sacrifices you and your familkies are making for us. KEEP SAFE AND GOD SPEED. |

We all appreciate your selfless service. Keep your chins up! Remember the power of positive thinking. Every day you serve brings you one step closer to hearing someone say "Welcome Back Home". Always remember the US citizens love your sense of duty and all the protection you and your fellow service men and women provide. Thank you! Have a very Merry Christmas and a healthy, safe and prosperous New Year! May God watch over you until your safe return- God speed |

Submitted by: Catherine Roulier on 12.24.09 6:15 PM Hello Captain Lanum and Sergeant Hussey, I'm wanting to wish you a safe Christmas & a safe New Year. Your both in the Marines so I'd say tough. I'm a Mom so I say safe cause frankly I can't not think like a Mom. :0) You both are doing the supreme service for our country & I want you both to really know that it is appreciated. Being here I listen to people & I have yet to listen to anyone that doesn't support our troops. My Husband served during the Viet Nam war. He had that grit, the do the right thing attitude that looking at your pictures, I can tell you have. It has served him well cause he's the finest man I've ever met. Honor, country. Striving to keep the world a safer place. You put your lives on the line for those goals. Thanks are inadequate. A virtual cookie is in order. Hope you like chocolate chip? Send me an address & I'll send you the real cookies. :0) My utmost respect, Catherine Marie P.S. My Husband said to include this...Semper-Fi |
