Hello to the publishers and editors of FATE magazine.
I am a sailor stationed onboard the USS Vicksburg deployed to the Persian Gulf. Some of my fellow sailors are followers of your magazine which they purchase on a regular basis. We are currently about half way through a 9 month deployment. For many this is their first deployment, the first time they have been away from their families for an extended period of time. For others, they have been on back to back deployments selflessly responding to the nation’s call and the
extreme demands placed on the military since 9/11.
I have several sailors working for me who just returned from a year tour in Afghanistan and are now deployed again. I would like to do something nice for these young men and women. They deserve it. I am looking for any products, special offers, back/old/surplus issues, etc…you would be willing to send to the sailors onboard our ship. Doing so would be greatly appreciated.
We are a small ship with less than 300 personnel and if you could put a smile on the faces of even a few of our sailors it would be greatly appreciated. For my part, I would ensure your company receives kudos in our Strike Group newspaper which reaches over 7,000 sailors and many potential loyal customers.
Again thank you for your time in reading this, I understand if you are not able to afford to donate anything
at this difficult time. However, even old/back/surplus issues would be great!
