Received from Afghanistan 30th December 2008

I am writing to thank you and your supporters heartily for your very generous welfare packages. I am based with my troops in the Front Line where conditions are basic, especially with winter clothing which why your gifts were so well received. We have received a number of packages that have been distributed to members of the Ghurkas Rifles who we are working with.

All of us were very pleased to have something to open on Christmas Day, however we are even more pleased to hear there are many amongst the public at home that support us and believe that we are doing a good job out here in Afghanistan.

Yours Gratefully,
Lt NT M
