To our Brave Men and Women of the Armed Forces:
Every morning, when my children and I begin our day, we take a moment to pray for our soldiers. We are so very proud of each and every one of you, for the sacrifices you make, the dangers you face daily for those whom your honor binds you to protect and for those of us back home. THANK YOU, from the bottom of our hearts. We wish you a safe and swift return home to your loved ones. Know that our thoughts and prayers are with you.
With much love and gratitude,
The Stender Family
Hi my name is Brandie and I work at Coastal Emc. I would like to take the time to say “Thank you”, For all that you are doing to protect our country. I find it an honor and privilege to live in this great country. I am blessed to have such a wonderful group of soldiers to be doing all that you do for us for me!
I know that you all have families that you have had to leave and I thank them too. God bless you! Please feel free to take my e-mail address and write back.
Thanks again!

Hello to the brave men and women of the 3rd Infantry Division,
I have lived in Hinesville and Liberty County ever since the U.S. Army sent me here in 1970. I have seen many changes—from a flight training center primarily teaching Vietnamese pilots, to a post that was right at caretaker status, to the unfurling of the colors of the 24th Infantry, to their being the “Point of the Spear” in Desert Storm to current times. As a county commissioner I was invited by then Commanding General MG Skip Sharp to go over to Bosnia with our current mayor and a half dozen other civilians. Most of us had worn our country’s uniform and we got to see the superb job that was being done on the ground in the Balkans. Those of us who are veterans, retirees, members of the American Legion, VFW, the Vietnam Veterans Association, AUSA, and other groups feel a special connection to you. In our churches here we list our members’ names that are serving and in harm’s way. When we bless our meals we pray for you. When we watch the news we readily identify the Dog-Faced Soldiers that make us so proud.Liberty County/Hinesville is a special place. Our history began with two signers of the Declaration of Independence. One of them, Button Gwinnett, fathered our first state constitution. We are the Children of Pride. At Dorchester Academy Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. taught civil disobedience in the tradition of Thoreau and Ghandi. We are indeed a special place. I don’t think it hyperbole to say we are the center of the universe. And you, you wonderful men and women of the 3rd I.D. make us that way. God bless you and know that we have never been prouder of our troops than we are of you in these trying times.
Sampie W. Smith
