ImberBoy Posted April 10, 2008 Posted April 10, 2008 Three lonely guys trying to hitch a ride https://www.soul-source.co.uk/rare-northern...ree-lonely-guys Soul in the sand I have three friends over in Afghanistan who would love to have a letter from any one about any thing. The life of a soldier in a war zone can be scary, boring, and lonely. When mail comes, letters are treasured. However, some soldiers receive nothing in the mail, month after month. Some of these soldiers don't have much family back home, or their families are busy, or just not the letter-writing type. So if you fancy cracking one out and sending it to a British soldier, here is how. Don't worry that the soldier won't find what you write about interesting, your letter will be appreciated. 24818546 W02 Caleb Smith 1 Royal Irish OMLT 4 Op Herrick 8 BFPO 792 25068341 Sgt Chris D Brown G Bty / I Troop 7 Para RHA Op Herrick 8 BFPO 792 24802727 WO2 REX SHAFEE 3 AAC SUPER KITCHEN CAMP BASTION OP HERRICK 8 BFPO 792 Oh and I suppose I better add some soul content..... Tracks with a war or military theme.... War - Edwin Starr (easy one first) Shotgun & the duck Junior and the All Stars - Shotgun
Guest highlander Posted April 11, 2008 Posted April 11, 2008 Hey Imberboy , what a great post . This really is close to home for me. My lad has just returned last week from helmand province working in OMLT4 got to say its been the worst 6 months of my life .Its only when you know someone out there that you become aware of the danger our lads face , and how this government can send them out there but do not seem to support them [sorry rant over] Ross kemp did a great job of showing the dangers our lads face , but the general public are not really interested , maybe they dont know why we are there ,and thats bourne out by the number of views to your post, but no replies! Hope your mates are doin' ok and they'll no doubt come back stronger and wiser from their experience .i'm going to get my lad to drop a line to the guy who's taken over his post . ............. Its friday i think i should go out.
