Subject: Hi from Socorro

Hi everyone.
I'm doing great here, this is such an eye opener. This is a dangerous place but I've got some great soldiers here doing their jobs day in day out with no thanks. If you could send me some care packedges for them comic books, newspaper, sweets and what ever else I'd appreciate it.

Love you guys alot.

Mike
