The email below was sent out from the founder of Soldiers Angels a nonprofit that my wife and I are a part of and believe in. I have posted this here in the event any members here might be interested in helping out a servicemember. Not only will I personally vouch for this program I think if you look at
http://www.soldiersangels.org/ you may feel the same. Please consider helpin' out, it doesn't take much effort to make a huge difference. Any questions in regards to my experience you may have feel free to ask!

In the years that we have been "Angels" I cannot recall Patti sending out an email like this. They must have a huge need!!

Thanks for listening

WE HAVE MANY MORE HEROES BEING SUBMITTED THAN ANGELS JOINING


We really did good at Christmas. Heroes Love to be adopted!

We got this quote,

\"Your organization is highly coveted and recommended by all. Is it possible if we can be added to the Soldier\'s Angels program. We\'ve got a lot of young soldiers who are experiencing difficult times for their first deployment, and external support from our nation\'s greatest supporters would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.\"

It is wonderful we are able to help with morale.

Will you adopt another hero?

Or will you please cantact your local churches,

schools, hospitals, Scouts? Many of our sons and daughters are in harms way and could use some support from home!

If you are an approved angel financially able to adopt another hero please login to

http://approvedangels.com

and click the link \"Request an additional soldier\", or tell all you can to go to

http://soldiersangels.org and click adopt a soldier.



Thank you for helping!!

Love

THIS IS MY SECOND COUSIN'S-ONE REMOVED, CHRISTMAS WISH. HER NAME IS
JENNIFER. SHE'S A COMBAT HOSPITAL SUPPLY NURSE STATIONED IN IRAQ
Date: Sun, 9 Dec 2007 06:50:12 +0000

 We have been so fortunate to have so much support back home! The
hospital has been completely inundated with gifts and it's simply
amazing to see how
much
people care-even complete strangers! However, we have a special
request. There are a few needs that the hospital has and we are unable
to receive through normal military routes. If you are wanting to send
something or if you know
of
people who are interested in helping, please pass along this list. We
are in desperate need of flat sheets. They don't have to be nice or
even a certain size. We need lots and lots of sheets. A typical trauma
works like this:

 A sheet  needs to be placed underneath the patient. This
assists in transferring the patient from bed to
bed
or wherever else they need to be moved. It also helps to keep the
floor a little cleaner. Then a sheet and/or blanket needs to be placed
over the patient, since they are now naked, for warmth and decency.
These sheets never make it back
to
EMT.
 So, as you can see, we go through TONS of sheets. We also need cotton blankets.

 We have wool ones but they don't work with the CT machine. It causes  scatter
and
the machine doesn't give a proper read. Finally, thick white and very
wide shower curtains. Shower curtains separate each one of the trauma
bays and they can get a little disgusting after years of use.
Unfortunately, this is something else that we can't receive through normal
supply routes.
 This is my plea for help. The sheets don't need to be high quality
or
pretty
or anything like that. We can always cut kings down to size. Please,
even one helps. Again, I thank you all so much for all your support so
far and all the thought that has been given to us. May God richly
bless this holiday season
and
keep you well.
 Jennifer
Flat sheets-LOTS!
 Cotton blankets
 Thick, white, wide shower curtains
