NEWS FROM OUR DEPLOYED BATTALION:

2-77th FA Afghanistan

77th ARTILLERY ASSOCIATION  TROOPER SUPPORT PROGRAM

     The second battalion of the 77th Field Artillery is serving downrange in Afghanistan.  While deployed, these 77th FA redlegs face the stresses and fatigue of combat, experience family separations and disruption of their normal lives. To at least partially compensate for this, the 77^th Artillery Association has adopted these battalions to promote a ‘TROOPER SUPPORT PROGRAM.’

By your participation not only will the 2-77th FA Redlegs in Afghanistan continue to be made directly aware of your individual support as they perform their assigned mission, but each time you leave your post office you will feel the inner satisfaction of knowing that you have done something to help the 77^th Artillery Association carry out a part of the reason for its existence. 

Other items that the 77th FA soldiers would enjoy are: board games, playing cards, jigsaw puzzles, and, of course, the always welcome homemade cookies and candy. PLEASE NOTE: Packages containing tobacco products, alcohol, weapons or ammunition, sexually oriented material and the like are not acceptable!

PACKAGE MAILING ADDRESSES:  Please do not use the address "any Soldier" as it will not be accepted by the Postal Service.
