About the Platoon
There are approximately 26 Soldiers, including 3 women in our US Army Platoon. They are deployed from Georgia and will be in Afghanistan until September of 2010.
Our soldiers are living in B Huts made of plywood and it is cold. There is a PX but supplies are limited. There is running water, but it frequently runs out. This is a DUSTOFF (MEDEVAC) Platoon: when a soldier or anyone else gets hurt, they go get them and many times the injured are children. They also fly missions to remote bases that only get their supplies via chopper.
Joe Corbi's managed to bring some "Home" to these soldiers. Recently, we sent 26 pizza kits to our platoon and we are happy to say that they were well received!
A Letter From Sondra - Our POC
"We received several packages from Mrs. Laureen Violi and her husband Rocco! I was not sure what email address to use to let them know that we indeed did get the packages which made for not only a great night of pizza eating but also a lot of very excited pilots and crew chiefs! Thank You from the bottom of our hearts! We all went to bed happy and full ;)
The last few days have been some pretty bad days so your packages put some needed smiles on a lot of soldiers faces!"
