Notes for the troops

fighting in Iraq?’

“I want to say thank you for fighting for the freedom of Iraqis

and I wish them a happy Valentine’s Day.”

“I just wanted to thank the soldiers for fighting for our country

and I hope they come home safe and soon.”

for fighting for our safety.”

SHANE GRACE, 10

hope they come home safely.”
