COMMUNITY CARES DC Ret. Air Force Chief Master Sergeant Todd Simmons, DC Community Cares event Chairman, explained the impact of this Care Package Assembly. “For me, as someone who served in the military for twenty-five years, who is now a card-certified veteran, someone who was a first responder for almost two decades, people tell you ‘thank you for your service,’ which is absolutely meaningful. But when people show up for you, it’s a completely different feeling.”
“The Soldiers at HHC, 63d ESB-E currently deployed want to send a big thank you for the care packages received. The hand written notes and letters were the highlight of the boxes and kept us motivated to do what we do best over here. Thank you so much!” A MESSAGE FROM OUR DEPLOYED TROOPS
