The Major visits Stacey David
We were in Nashville yesterday to film an episode of Stacey David’s Gearz. You never know what to expect from celebrities you admire when you actually meet them in person. Stacey greatly exceeded our expectations. He was one of the coolest and most down to earth people I have ever met. He sat around the truck and talked to us off camera like we were a long time friends. This was an amazing experience for HeroBox that will generate a lot of support for the troops.

From the Joint Task Force in Kabul
We received a wonderful letter, award and photos in the mail today from the 1st BN, 118th Field Artillery Regiment in Kabul Afghanistan. It is truly humbling to receive thanks from the heroes that provide the very freedom we enjoy. They are coming home in March and we look forward to their safe return.

6 year old’s efforts to support the troops.
“Our family sponsors troops through HeroBox, so my son is familiar with the cause. I was asked by his kindergarten teacher to organize the Christmas party for his class, when I asked my son if he had any good ideas for the party he asked if we could dedicate it to our troops! With tears in my eyes I responded with a resounding yes and we began our mission to inform the school of our plans. We used the list off of your site to make a list of wanted items and conformed a letter to the parents asking for donations. The kids decorated Christmas cards and we packed a HeroBox full of goodies and sent them to the troops. Not only did the kids feel good about what they had done but we used it as a lesson on the spirit of giving. It was the best party ever!
Thanks for the opportunity!” ~ Kate and Bailey Jackson
