The contemporary jazz group “Airborne “received
an email from a American soldier fighting in
Afghanistan, CSM Corey Woodard. It
read:
I am currently deployed to Afghanistan with my battalion, consisting of
Soldiers, Airmen, and Marines.
Many of my troops and I are avid smooth jazz
listeners. However, we find it extremely difficult to get
smooth jazz CDs here
in such a remote and austere environment.
I would like to know if you or anyone you know
would be willing to donate a few smooth jazz CDs to us
during our deployment
here in Afghanistan. Such a gift would greatly enhance my troops’ morale and
give them a reminder of the good life that they all enjoyed back at home.
We would greatly appreciate anything you could
send to make this deployment better. You may send any items
to the following
address and I will ensure they are equally shared and distributed:
Thanks in advance. CSM Corey Woodard JLC-MCB APO AE 09354
