Warrior Vacations Coordinators
c/o John and Barbara
Yulee, Florida 32097

Dear John and Barbara,
On behalf of my very appreciative military family I wanted to take the opportunity to sincerely thank both you, Mr Peters, and all of the individuals and families that are indirectly or directly involved in the Warrior Vacations program. We cannot begin to express our gratitude.

In March we had the opportunity to vacation at our favorite place on the East Coast. This truly was the first vacation that we had to truly experience following a very grueling 15-month separation in Afghanistan. The ability to relax, unwind, just come together as a family and re-integrate was the true gift. I cannot begin to thank you all, the very gracious condominium owner and the folks at Amelia Island Plantation for making this our time as a family.

I would also like to personally thank Mrs. Pam Bell who went out of her way to photograph our family and provide us with a package of pictures that will give us some extremely important lasting memories. She selflessly spent an hour of her time on a very chilly Saturday night on the beach making our children smile.. We cannot begin to thank her too for her time and donation to our family.

As a military member for the past 20 years and a veteran of 3 deployments thus far, family re-integration is paramount for family stability and sustainability. Your program greatly assisted our family achieve this. Thank you so very much. I will continue to refer my fellow colleagues to your website and promote the great things you all are doing.

Please again accept our sincere thanks and appreciation for giving something back to the families that are serving! WE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER THIS!
