Have been catching up on your blog. I’m a writer and found it through “The Sylvan Echo.”

I think it grand you’re making lemonade out of your lemons while serving your country. Also, I’m so impressed you finished college, are working on your MFA, and now serving your country. We need more citzens with character. I hope you get that book published of your experiences.

Just don’t forget there are people back home who appreciate your efforts. We wouldn’t be living in the greatest country in the world if it weren’t for sacrifices.

Keep praying. Prayer works. I couldn’t have made it through some tough times without it.

If there’s anything you need, please let me know and an address. If there’s someone in your unit who needs to get letters from the States and doesn’t have family, let me know. It’s always nice having something to look forward to at mail call. Perhaps I can help there.

God bless you and keep you safe so you may return home to your family and loved ones.

You are appreciated and so are your Marines.

All Best,
V. H. Moss
