Hi Kaylee,
My name is SSG Brandon K. and my unit and I arrived in Kuwait about a month ago. We are currently stationed at Camp Patriot. In handing over office space and equipment we also inherited a sizable DVD and CD collection that was donated by your organization. Along with them were cards and business cards that you had sent. I wanted to reiterate, as I'm sure the units who were the original recipients of your kindness did, how appreciative we are for the work you're doing. You make the limited downtime we have here more enjoyable.
Thank you again.
SSG Brandon K.

The band The Turn wants to support Troops
I have just learned of your incredible organization and my band and I would very much like to help. My band, The Turn, is a Rockville Centre, NY-based independent modern rock band (in the general range of John Mayer, Coldplay, the Fray, U2, Snow Patrol and the Goo Goo Dolls). We have just released our first, self-produced extended play CD of original material called “Long Story Short” and, though our ability to send the “fancy” version of the CD with the artwork and booklet, etc. is limited, we would be happy to produce copies of the CD master, which we could do in much larger quantities. If that meets with your approval, we could begin to produce the copies immediately and send batches of the CDs periodically over time. We stream our music and some videos from our concerts on our website and MySpace page. If that would be of help, as well, I will provide you with that information.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Brian Ripps

18th Military Police
Kaylee,
Our unit, the 18th Military Police Brigade, here in Iraq received a box of CDs from you a couple months ago and they were well received.
The troops enjoyed listening to the music and watching the movies. We even had several local Tenn. Soldiers enjoy the Tenn. video that were sent in our box. They learned a little more about their state and football team!
I must admit, I also took time to watch one of the movies that came in the box as well.
Keep up the good work and I and our Soldiers appreciate the time you have taken out of an important time in your life to look out for someone else. Not many teenagers would do this.

U.S. Army
I met your Mom the other day and she advised me that YOU were the lady in charge of Tune 4 The Troops. I am a veteran of more than 22 years in the United States Army, six times in combat, wounded five times, and am now retired from the Army and am now a Federal Investigator. I tell you this to make a point. I truly appreciate what you are doing. I have many Brothers that are in the heart of the bad lands in Iraq and in Afghanistan now, and many others headed that way. Since I spoke to your Mom, I have e-mailed many of them and asked them if they had ever heard of your organization. Of the 42 I have e-mailed, 23 have told me that they have received music CD's from your efforts and they greatly appreciate it.
You have no idea what kind of impact you are making in the lives of Our Valiant Servicemen and Women. I just wanted to simply tell you that I appreciate what you are doing. I know the work gets tough sometimes, but believe me when I tell you, you ARE "Making A Difference!" Thank you for what you are doing and thank you for who you are. You are a magnificent young lady.
May Our God wonderfully bless you as you continue to serve those who are serving us. May He guide you and reward you for all that you are doing and the sacrifices you are making. have a blessed and wonderful day.
Mike W.
