30 seconds to say Hi

Tell them!
"US Marine Colonel Simcock, the commander of USMC Regimental Combat Team 6 in Iraq, is asking for 6,000 positive emails to his Marines. That's one email for each Marine in his RCT command.
COL Simcock is concerned about the effect of the negative barrage that those Marines are getting through the electronic media.
I've attached an excerpt from an interview with him. So far, they've only mustered 2,000 emails. That's a crying shame compared to the amount of crap I get daily in email.
"This is a legitimate request. It's not one of the "little Johnny wants to break the world's record in Christmas cards" situations. It takes only 30 seconds of your time.
Here's the address:RCT-6lettersfromh@gcemnf-wiraq.usmc.mil
It doesn't have to be the Gettysburg Address. Something as simple as "Hello, Marine. We thank you for what you're doing. You are in a noble task. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
Best wishes & get home soon" is more than sufficient.

Excellent Start to a great but simple way to say thanks to the USMC.
Best thing I've done all day was to send a email.
