Greetings from Iraq

Posted by Charlie for HM1 Curtis L. Thaxton:

Hello, my name is HM1 (FMF/SS/SW) Curtis L. Thaxton. As you know, I’m currently in the Navy and stationed in Iraq. My homeport is Groton, CT at the Submarine Base, New London. First of all I would like to thank Charlie Thompson for setting up this E-mail Blogger and giving us a means to communicate, even a million miles away. Next I would like to thank HMC Dierking who recently got back from Iraq for giving Charlie my e-mail address to get the ball rolling. Most of all I would like to thank Cub Scout Pack 2 Mystic, American Heritage Girls Troop CT0001 and everyone who is home supporting me and MWSS 272 Detachment. Also, the overwhelming support to my Wife, Melissa and my son, Bailey who you have graciously open your hearts and invited to your Thanksgiving Day Celebration. What an honor it is to be a part of such a wonderful group of people. I am very thankful for all that you do.

Hi Curt , Melissa, and Bailey
We are the Dittrich Family- Denise and Paul,
Deanna(9yrs old),Matthew(6yrs old)+Megan(3yrs old).
We are very glad to meet you, at least in cyberspace for now. We are very much looking forward to the Thanksgiving feast on the 26th and opportunity to meet Melissa and Bailey. THANK YOU for giving our children and our family the wonderful opportunity and exciting experience to give back and find the true meaning of THANKSGIVING. We thank you for all you do and your courage through these times that you are separated as a family! Welcome to our scouting family.

Sincerely,THE DITTRICH FAMILY

Hello

Holding Down the Fort

While Curt is bravely serving our nation in Iraq, his wife, Melissa, and his son, Bailey, are holding down the fort back here in Connecticut. Their sacrifices, especially during the upcoming holiday season, do not go unnoticed. Our family and our young scouts are greatly appreciative of all that they do and we're very excited that Melissa and Bailey be joining our Scouts' Thanksgiving Dinner in November.
