Subject: Thank you

To All,

Thank you for your wonderful donation to Boca Java, 'Send Coffee to the Troops'. Your gracious donations have been sent to and received by myself and my company. My name is Staff Sergeant Andrew Keene; When we first arrived here the temperatures were in the 120's, but as of lately the temperatures reach highs in the 80's and lows in the 30's. Coffee has become a commodity of great morale support. When we received your donation of 4800 cups we were astounded and greatly thankful. Also with the holiday season upon us it will be of great help. So on behalf of all the soldiers of Alpha Company, Thank you. Enclosed is a picture of a few of the guys whose lives are that much closer to home.The picture is that of 1st platoon standing behind a Bradley (troop carrier).

Thank You
SSG Andrew Keene
