I was one of the soldiers who arrive on 02FEB2012 from the 10th MNT. I just wanted to say thank you to all of those who were there to greet us. I talked to many of the soldiers who were with me and we all were very impressed with the turn out and the warm welcome we received. I am very glad to see there are still people who support the military and because of people like you it makes me proud to serve. Thank you for everything.

Just needed to write and say a huge thank you for the greeting last night. It was completely overwhelming to see so many of you giving up your valuable time just to greet us for such a short stop over. Your hospitality and kindness was simply outstanding. It will live in my memory for as long as I shall live. In my 22 years serving I have never experienced anything remotely close to this, we don't get welcomes like this even on return from deployments. Thank you once again.

Thank you to every Pease Greeter who met our son's flight at 2 a.m. this morning. WOW...That was above and beyond the call of duty! He wasn't expecting this heros welcome nor were we. He photographed himself in the knit cap that was presented to him and emailed it to us this morning. He was sporting a huge grin wearing it! It was nice seeing him smile as he left the U.S. in this photograph and others that were sent by email today from the Pease Greeter whom I wrote to thank. Again, thank you all from the bottom of our hearts. What a send-off from his last stop in the USA enroute to Afghanistan. HOOAH PEASE GREETERS!

I "became a Greeter" in '05 as George and Elizabeth invited me. They attended the same church as me.

I Deployed to and returned from the far east via Seattle back in the '50s. (yes kids there really were "troop ships";) NO family to see us off or welcome us home except for the few "local" guys. So I know personally what our work means to those troopers, airmen, sailors et. al.

Only attended work-day flights until my sweet wife of 40+ years passed away in '07. Then it was the Greeter family, especially Capt. Ed, Joanne and Fred, Bill, Al, & both Daves of the PDA who really helped me survive the early "grieving process"...

The good hearts in this group don't just minister to the troops. They minister to everyone that God puts in their path.

With the reduced ops-tempo I've missed that almost as much as the satisfaction I get from the troops reactions.

Thanks Greeter Family
Joe

I am overdue to tell you thanks. It has been 5 years since I returned from Iraq after back to back tours. I remember feeling overwhelmed when I saw the first of your greeters at the end of the ramp. With the recent announcement that Iraq is coming to a close I struggle with a lot of mixed emotions. I do not know if anything was accomplished or won, or if it mattered to the average American, but I doubt it.

I will say this however, I will never doubt the kindness, patriotism, and sincerity of the people of Pease. When I have a bad day or feel down, I think of how one one day in early September, total strangers welcomed my friends and me home. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness and support.

Hello, I just wanted to write and say Thank You, to all of you! I received 2 boxes today, one with hygiene items, the other with all kinds of goodies!! I want you to know that all the hard work of volunteering, packing the boxes and sending them to us are greatly appreciated by many!!! I share everything that I get, and let me just say it is like Christmas opening a box from you all and enjoying every item! I am one who loves the letters and cards that people write that are added into the boxes, but don’t get me wrong the food is AMAZING also!!! Again, I just want to thank you all so much!!!!

Dear Greeters,

Today (7-27-11) was our 1st experience with a homecoming & the Greeters. My son happened to be on the flight returning the 37th Air Reg heading to Ellsworth AFB. My heart was full of emotion to witness our troops be so generously and thoughtfully Welcomed home. I cannot express nor put into words the overwhelming emotion and pride I felt being part of this amazing experience. We as an Airman's family, were also treated with unbelieveable compassion & empathy. I just want to say Thank You...to All of you, for what you do for our troops, not just for this experience alone, but for all you've done in the past, and all you'll do in thr future! I could see it in their tired eyes how much it meant to them. As a mother to both an Airman and Marine, it warms my heart to see such heartfelt support and appreciation for what our men and woman in uniform sacrifice daily. I will personally keep this day forever close to my heart.

Again...Thank You and God Bless each and every one of you!

Respectfully,

~Dawn Hunt
