The 3Day Dancers support our troops in Iraq!

The 3Day Dancers support our troops!

Below is a picture of a platoon of soldiers serving in Iraq who received a care package from the 3Day Dancers!

The request was for sports bras, pink silicone awareness bracelets & a banner for a picture, but we also added some additional goodies, like pink ribbon socks, lanyards, lapel pins and 3Day Dancers M&M's. The platoon has several co-survivors (family members of women in treatment), and one brave young woman who got special dispensation to shave her head in support of her aunt currently in treatment ( women in the US military are not allowed to shave their heads).

These men & women are proudly serving their country, and we are honored that they took the time to pose for a picture and we continue to pray for their safety.

The platoon has requested the following items:

Salty snacks, magazines, power bars, vitamins, tampons, regular size shampoo & conditioner, notebooks, footballs, water guns, sour candy, blank cards (thank you, happy birthday, miss you, etc.), air fresheners, Gummy Bears & ranch sunflower seeds.

If you can help with any of the above, please email our captain at: jeanmarie@3daydancers.org


To the Heroes of the 3 Day Dancers,

 

My name is Jessica Burton and I am a 1LT in the United States Army, currently stationed at Camp Liberty, Iraq. I am writing to tell all of the survivors as well as those fighting breast cancer that the women of 2/664th ORD DET are fighting and praying for yall all the way over here.

Your dedication to the war on breast cancer truly motivates me and my Soldiers. I pray every day that we can find the same strength within to face our hardships for the next year. You the:"Survivors", "Walkers", "Supporters" and "FIGHTERS" are the true heroes!  Thank you so much for all of the support you have given us and know that we are supporting you as well! Remember Freedom isn't FREE! Keep on DANCIN!

 

Thank you,

Jessica Burton

1LT,OD

Camp Liberty, Iraq

Thank you Nick for the nice graphic and for taking the time to read about some very special co-survivors in IRAQ.

It is hard enough supporting a family member in treatment for breast cancer when you are home, but when serving your country in a foreign land, it is even more difficult.

Thanks for recognizing what a dual battle some of these soldiers are engaged in.

 

Hugs always,

JeanMarie
