Soldier surprises students who began writing letters to him in kindergarten while he was deployed in Iraq

 

 

David Emanuel Academy
last Friday

Senior students at DEA had a wonderful surprise visitor this morning! Years ago (kindergarten at DEA), these children formed a special bond through pen pal letters to then, Major Buggs. Their kind gesture formed a special bond that is still remembered fondly to this day. Today, also Senior Day at DEA, BG Vincente Buggs 364th ESC Commander paid them a special surprise visit. The children enjoyed hearing how their simple gestures years ago impacted a life in such a big way. What a treat to have Gen. Buggs reminisce fondly of a special time for all of them. Small gestures of kindness really do impact in mighty ways!

Very cool. It’s nice they got to meet. 
 

When I was in 3rd grade we wrote letters to soldiers in Vietnam. We never received answers. I often wondered if the letters actually reached the intended recipients. They weren’t to anyone in particular. I think they were addressed to Company’s that my teacher was told were in Vietnam. It was as a fun project, regardless.
