Hey guys. I'm asking (begging) you guys to just simply send a card, letter, short note to my friend JAY who's in Iraq. He just left a couple weeks ago and even though I didn't get to see him a lot...I miss him, just knowing he's so far away from home and from being safe. I've asked you guys to do things like this in the past (here comes an unintentional scolding) and no one really participated.

I am pleading with you to please write and let him and his unit and all the other soldiers over there know that we love and miss them. That we thank them SO MUCH for doing what they do. Jay's been chomping at the bit to get over there and serve...he's an amazing guy and a great buddy. He does work for CARS FOR CANCER and is a fellow Xterra wheeler. I've had the pleasure of a couple outings (both winter and summer) with just he and I in our Xterras and we had a blast. He's a good Irish boy.

Just a simple...thank you would be great. Let him know you're from Alpha/Omega and we're supporting him.

While you guys are doing this and sending it to:

Sgt Jay Sterling
3RD LAR BN Grappler Co. 3rd Pltn
Unit 41701
FPO AP 96426-1701

I'll be getting together a box of goods to send him. Of course, if there's something you want to send, I can add it to the box. Just bring something to one of the next 2 runs. I will send the box after the MAY run.

Thank you so much. I know we all are busy and "mean well"....but I ask that we all go the extra mile and sit down and thank one of our awesome soldiers for what they are doing.....

....Who's in???

Here's a picture from our last time out:





Here's where he broke thru the little bridge...we got him out with his highlift and my floor jack!
