Schweitzer thanked for visiting troops in Iraq

To the Editor:

EDITOR'S NOTE: The following letter was sent to Montana Gov. Brian Schweitzer.

Dear Governor Schweitzer,

Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to visit our Montana veterans serving in Iraq.

We appreciate that as our governor you recognize the tremendous sacrifice our veterans and their families make for all of us in Montana and the USA while serving in the military.

All of us in America enjoy the many freedoms we know today because of the veterans who have served in the past and those who are currently serving today.

As the parents of a U.S. Army Special Forces Soldier, who recently returned from Iraq, we know that support of our troops from home means a great deal to those serving and is a great morale booster.

Thanks again, Governor Schweitzer, for supporting our Montana/USA troops.
