From the Desk of Santa Claus            Christmas Towne, North Pole                December 2004

Dear American Hero,

I know that you've been good this year, because my elves tell me that you have been very busy fighting for freedom and defending our country from terrorists. My elves also tell me that the sacrifices you have made have been many and that your actions are actions of courage, dignity and selflessness. Your braveness has made it possible for my reindeer and I to fly through the sky on Christmas Eve without fear and deliver happiness and smiles to children all over the world.

With this letter, I'm sending the heartfelt gratitude of all of your fellow Americans. Your country is very proud of you and your fellow soldiers. Your country is proud of you for all the sacrifices you have made and are making without question, for your country and the world.

My elves, Mrs. Claus, my reindeer and myself are very proud of all the brave American Soldiers just like you. Merry Christmas, dear hero and may the New Year bring joy and peace unto you.

Love,
Santa Claus
