How can you help support a Soldier
Write Patients in Germany You can write letters and cards of support and encouragement to the wounded and ill troops who are being treated in and transitioned through medical facilities in Germany. Your cards and letters will be included in Transitional Backpacks or separately as needs dictate, but in both cases distributed directly through Soldiers' Angels Germany. You may want to include your name, address and email address in your letters. Suggested salutations: "Dear Soldier", "Dear Hero", "American Hero", etc. are all fine! Please put cards and letters in a large envelope and send to:
21st TSC, Medical Transient Detachment ATTN: Soldiers' Angels UNIT 23203 APO AE 09263
Important: - Please notify the organization when items are shipped. - Include a note with your name, Email address, and short description of items sent in your packages. Without this information, Blankets of Hope organization regrets it not be able to confirm their receipt. Thank you for your support.
Soldiers' Angels Germany Mission: To support American wounded and ill Heroes who are transitioned through Germany from Iraq and Afghanistan. They are looking for large hand and foot coverings for the critically injured to protect their extremities. Hands or feet - all need covers because the flights back to the states are so cold. Everything needs to be oversized to fit on big hands, or over casts, bandages, and arterial lines. Soldiers Angels Germany (SAG) can also use knit caps. A great friend Ellen at The Ships Project has come up with the idea of making large, loose knitted tubes that can be used on both hands and feet and that can fit over casts, fixators, IV tubes, etc.
