Welcome To New Yow Bowhunters, Inc.

LETTERS OF THANKS FROM OUR TROOPS
NYB THANKS THESE FINE PEOPLE FOR THEIR SACRIFICES

New York Bow Hunters,

Thank you so much for your thoughtful care packages. They are greatly appreciated. It is great to hear from Americans that support our efforts. We will be here at least until August or September. This is my 8^th combat tour and fourth for this war. I am glad to hear that you are one American that appreciates what we are going through. I was brought up in Geneva NY.

Our Marines are very busy, so I do the writing and thanking of the great Americans that support us. We are very busy keeping our airplanes flying and training. We have a 40 Marine Quick Reaction Force (QRF). I take care of the Marines and their problems and I also training them for ground combat missions. Here is couple of pictures: one of me training the QRF and the other of the QRF training.

Please do not fall for the garbage the American news media is putting out. They do not want to tell the truth about what is going on over here; it doesn’t meet their agenda. They are absolutely full of crap. I hate our media; they cannot be trusted. Here is my email, in case you are interested: My email address is: david.devaney@aa.mnf-wiraq.usmc.mil.

Thank you for your continued support of our great warriors.
Semper Fidelis, David

Mr. Bottari,
I just received you care package today and I would like to so thank you very much. It really helps with my Marine’s morale while being deployed out here in Iraq. Though, I was the person the package was sent to I always distribute the contents of the package to my troops. We are very happy to have received you packages. I appreciate you writing me the letter, as well. Well, let me tell you about myself. I am 22 years old with 3 brothers and three sisters (I am the middle child). I am a Corporal of the Marines. This is my second time to Iraq and I am very proud to be able to fight for my country and our freedom for the second time now. Other then that there isn’t much else I can say, but again thank you for the packages and thank you for you support.
Sincerely,
Cpl Hiddemen

Mr. McSwigin,
I wanted to thank you for the package you send to us in Afghanistan. It is very much appreciated! As an avid bow hunter, I was glad to see your business card. I was stationed at West Point a few years back and arrowed several New York deer while I was there.
Thanks again for your support…it really does mean a lot to the soldiers here. Brian
