598TH MAINTENANCE COMPANY
Ft. Benning, GA - ARMY
BAGHDAD, IRAQ
"Just wanted to let you know that I talked to my son who is serving in the Army in Baghdad, Iraq.  He and his unit received care packages yesterday from "4 Our Soldiers" and they were thrilled!  They received much needed items such as sheets & batteries and also some movies and treats.  They are working 12 hour grueling days 6-7 days a week putting better armor and electric turrets on the Humvees to keep our soldiers safe and the packages gave them a little pick me up and let them know that people support and care for them.
KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!  I will be doing some shopping on-line and spreading the
word about the great work you are doing to support our troops.

Submitted unit request
"I'm in the 598th Maint. Co. working 12 hour night shifts, 7 days a week installing better armor on the humvees.  When we try to wind down we enjoy watching DVD's, especially comedies.  We also have to pay for our own calling cards to call out loved ones who we miss dearly!  We also buy our own sheets & blankets and there seems to be a shortage of twin size sheets here."
"Hello, friends:

I want to thank you for your package and thank you for your support on behalf of 598th Maint Co; and A/A platton... hope to see you soon... stay safe up there!!!

Spc Isaza. Al"
