Here are a few thank you notes from Marines in the program.
“I just wanted to take the time to thank all of you for your overwhelming show of support for me through this extremely difficult time. I have so many letters and I apologize for not writing back to everyone personally, but I think I would be writing forever. I am praying every day that (others don’t) have to go through the ordeal that I went through. I am doing outpatient physical and occupational therapy near my home. I (have) severe nerve pain in my foot that just won't go away. I’m still trying to get used to having 8 fingers and a big limp in my step. Thank you all for your support.” — LCpl Dave, December, 2006
“Thank you for all the support and letters. Whenever I started to have a bad day I would open up a few I hadn't read yet. I am able to walk short distances without a cane, my endurance and balance are the problems now... but things continue to improve at a very fast rate. Thank you to anyone who helped with this, it has brought my spirits up and continues to help me heal.” —LCpl. Josef, January 2007
