Letter-Writing Campaign for Deployed Troops

Week of August 18, 2008

"Operation S.O.S." is a letter-writing campaign started by Mineral Buff, Ga. resident Cody Anderson. He hopes to encourage everyone to write one letter to every Soldier, Sailor, Airman and Marine currently serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. Along with the letter, Anderson is requesting participants include a $10 phone card. Operation Give, a group that supplies humanitarian aid to civilians in combat zones, is helping Anderson collect the letters to send off to troops. Operation Give is a member of the Defense Department's America Supports You program, which connects citizens and companies with servicemembers and their families serving at home and abroad. Interested people should send their letters for the troops to: Operation Give, Attn: Operation S.O.S., 2363 South Scenic Dr., Salt Lake City, Utah 84109.
