FM9 - Letters to the Troops
Our sincerest thanks to all of you who participated in the Letters to the Troops campaign this year. Nurse Swanson and Mrs. Killough were able to drop off 533 letters to the troops. Because FM9 took the time to put so many heartfelt expressions of gratitude and meaning into these letters, many service men and women will feel a small sentiment from home that lets them know we appreciate their service and sacrifice. We are beyond proud to be a Jaguar.
