My Step-son is in basic.  He wrote us and in his letter he talked about how good it makes them all feel to get mail.  My brothers and sisters, if you care too, please write him at the following address:




           PVT Purswell, Joseph L 8080

           A-2-10 Inf Regt 4th Plt 

           495 Iowa Ave, Unit 12

            Ft. Leonard Wood, MO 65473



On the back of the envelope, seal it, put the number 4 on it and circle the 4.




Thank you all so much in advance,


A proud ARMY Parent,

James Wihtrow

ARMY.  He is 22 and told me "I am going no where.  I have looked into it, I am going into the ARMY."  I could not be prouder.

Congratulation proud papa! I know he will get good training at Fort Lost in the Woods(as we like to call it). Does your son know what his MOS will be when he goes to AIT? My prayers will be with him for safekeeping! HUAH!

His MOS is Intelligence Analyst.  He is going to let me know of anyone in his unit that is not getting anything in mail.  He states that they are all a pretty tight unit.  Thanks again for all who are showing thier support.

He has started getting the stuff some of you are sending.  He thinks its great and wanted me to pass on his thanks.  Thank you all for showing him there are people who care, and not just for the ones they know.  Thank you all again.
