Dear SFA Chapter 26 Members
On a voluntary basis our Chapter plans to “adopt” several deployed active duty SF Teams based out of Camp Brian Woods, FOB Ghanzi. We plan to help support them with several “Care Packages” during the year.
Several important connections to our Chapter to point out here:
Camp Brian Woods was named after SFC Brian Woods, a member of B-2-20th SFG who was KIA in Afghanistan.
LTC Adrian “Bogey” Bogart (former SF Det Commander, SF Company XO, SF Company Commander) in B-2-20 SFG and C-1-20 SFG is the Team Chief at Camp Woods. They are supporting village stability Operations in the Province. Bogey just started his FIFTH one year deployment to OIF/OEF. That is quite commendable.
We would like to use our next Chapter meeting on 6 June 2012 as the 1st collection period for our first SFA 26 Care package.
Coffee, candy, jerky, cookies, non perishable foods, cigars, magazines, toiletries are the most requested items. Please bring any donated items to the 6 June 2012 Chapter meeting.
We would also be pleased with any cash/check donations so we can go purchase these items on behalf of our SF brothers.
You can send donations to SFA 26, 825 Misty Meadow, Sykesville, MD 21784 (ref: Care package/Camp Brian Woods)
