Attached is the memorandum which outlines the Adopt A Soldier program that was created by the Battalion Commander. You are all encouraged to take part in this program and to send it out to anyone you feel might be interested in helping out our fellow soldiers deployed downrange.
972nd Military Police Company

MEMORANDUM FOR All who support our troops.

SUBJECT: 972nd Military Police Adopt a Soldier Program

1. This memorandum is to kick off a program that we are initiating at the 211th Military Police Battalion
to assist our fellow soldiers in the 972nd MPCompany currently deployed to Iraq. The program is
entitled "Adopt a Soldier". It is an effort for the soldiers deployed to receive constant support and
gratification for the sacrifices that they are making on a daily basis. 100 Percent of the money raised will
go to the soldiers of the 972 Military Police Company. The money will be distributed throughout the
company to help defray costs of internet to increase the ability for soldiers to communicate with loved.
ones back home. In addition it will go towards morale and welfare activities or equipment that will help
soldiers adapt to life overseas and make there time away from home as comfortable as possible.

2. The details of the program are outlined as follows. For a small one time donation of $100 you wili be
able to adopt a soldier in the 972nd MP Company. Once we receive your request to adopt a soldier you
will be contacted by SGT Kimberly Linatopi who will maintain the roster of deployed soldiers. If you
have a particular soldier that you would like to adopt you can request that soldier. It is our goal to have
every soldier in the 972nd adopted through this program. You will be provided the soldier's name, rank,
email address and APO address so you can begin to reach out to the soldier. The soldier will also be
notified that they were adopted by you and will be provided your name, address and email address.

3. Once you have adopted a soldier you can feel free to contact them however works best for you; It is
our goal that you will able to maintain communications with the soldier through email as well as cards,
letters, care packages. As a veteran I remember how much we looked forward to the mail each day in
hopes that you would receive something from back home. We ask a lot of our men and women in the
armed forces and this is a great opportunity to give back, and keep the lines of communication open.
Thank you for your support and please consider adopting a soldier.
