Kevin Hughes Monday, May 17, 2004 4:40 AM You don't know me my name is SSgt. Kevin Hughes from the NH Air Guard. I am deployed to Iraq and stationed with MSgt. Bowen at Baghdad international Airport (BIAP). I just want to say thank you so much for the T-shirts. MSgt. Bowen handed them out during our last commander's call and he read some of the kind words you sent along with them. When we hear words like that come from complete strangers that are so meaning full it warms our hearts, gets a lot of us choked up if you look around the room you can see a lot of big men trying to hide their watery eyes that includes me, and it reminds us what we are doing over here so far away from our families and friends. And it makes it a little more bearable, makes the bad things here not so bad. You wouldn't believe how many of us asked to come here and to me that makes me believe that we will come out on top because the heart of a volunteer is a strong heart. And with support from people like you and the NY fire fighters and police we won't fail. We can't again thank you.
