Dear Employees of Bay Auto:
Thank you for your thoughtful and generous contribution to provide financial assistance to the surviving spouses and dependent children of U.S. naval personnel who were critically injured or killed during the October 12th attack on the guided missile destroyer USS COLE (DDG 67). |
|
Public response to this tragedy has been heartwarming. Although we can’t turn back the clock, your contribution (when added to other donations from across the America) will help ease the burden of the families whose lives have been torn asunder by this senseless act of terrorism.
Because it is an organization that has been offering a helping hand to Sailors, Marines, and their families since 1904, the Commander-in-Chief, a U.S. Atlantic Fleet, requested that the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society receive and administer these funds to assist the families of USS COLE in their time of need. Your donation has therefore been forwarded to the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society for administration in accordance with your wishes. On behalf of the USS COLE families who will benefit from your generosity, please accept the Navy’s heartfelt gratitude. For Internal Revenue Service documentation purposes, this was a cash contribution, and no goods or services were exchanged for the donation. Again, please accept my sincere thank you for your generous gift.
Sincerely,
W.C. WRIGHT,
Sr. Captain, U.S. Navy Commanding Officer Naval Amphibious Base, Little Creek
