"We got the packages today and I wanted to send you a thank you! The company was very thankful and the delicious food is gone already. We had a fitness test earlier this week, so most of the guys were watching their food intake to ensure a good performance. The timing could not have been better as the treats were a nice reward for successful completion. I've attached two pictures of some of our guys unpacking the food... I had to get them quickly before it all disappeared!
On May 20th, 2015 the City of San Mateo and our thoughtful community put together 20+ care packages (see below) for our adopted troop. We received a heart-warming message of thanks and a great photo!
"Thank you and the City of San Mateo for the outstanding and persistent support you all have given to the Company through the four years that I have personally been in ABU Company. The package I received was amazing! There was not a single thing that will not get eaten or used. We have your photos posted throughout our company area so that all the incoming Soldiers can see what the City and its citizens have done for the Soldiers and the Company.
"Year after year for the past 47 years their citizens have supported the Soldiers of ABU and their families and even more when deployed. They yet again impressed us. This month we received a banner signed by nearly 100 citizens and each Soldier received an individually addressed and packaged care package."
