Sailor Helping Morale of Troops and Military Families
Nothing helps the morale of our service men and women more than getting mail and gifts from home. There are many rules and regulations about what can be sent, how to send it, as well as what types of gifts are the most popular to receive. One service man has created a unique way to help members of the military and their loved ones.
SURPRISE, AZ (PRWEB) October 16, 2004 -- A sailor in the Navy has created a unique way to help boost the morale of service men and women deployed around the world, and the impact of what he is doing is making a difference.
Deon Williford, 28, an information systems technician for the U.S. Navy, knows what it is like to be far from home serving his country, worried about the ones he loves, and so he decided to do something about it.
I just completed a nine-month tour in Iraq. I have seen first hand what a difference it makes to the morale of our service members to receive gifts and letters from home, so I created the perfect gift to give that special person in your life who is serving our country," said Williford.
Some are against the war in Iraq and others support it, but all are supportive of the men and women who are serving their country and putting themselves in harms way.
BearMailExpress.com provides a unique military care package that has been the ideal gift for many. Included in the package is a Teddy bear, candy, a gift card, a surprise gift, post card and more. Customers can select from a variety of bears on-line at www.BearMailExpress.com, use pre-designed greetings, or input their own personal message as well as pick the type of candy that they would like to send their loved one.
Williford says his program is catching attention and gaining popularity. Originally designed for the military, others like it as well. He says 60 percent of his customers are in the military and 40 percent are civilians.
Members of all branches of the service enjoy getting these packages, and they also like to give these to their friends and family at home. They want to be remembered," said Williford.
Using the web site www.BearMailExpress.com helps improve morale among service members because it gives them a sense of hope and appreciation, and it enables them to express their love in a special way to loved ones back home.
Family members and friends can send their special service member a BearMailExpress.com gift simply and easily to any FPO or APO address. It is simple to select just the right item, type the desired message, and enter the address it is to go to. BearMailExpress.com takes care of everything else, making sure every package meets all shipping and military requirements.
I know how it feels during mail call to receive more than just mail. I know what mail call means to our troops. Whether our military members are in the Army, Air Force, Coast Guard, National Guard, Navy, or Marines we know how to assist you in sharing your feelings, thoughts and recognition," said Williford.
BearMailExpress.com was started in 1997 by Williford because he saw a need and filled it. Since then he has not only helped service members and their families, he is also actively helping college students away from home for the first time.
So many young college students head off to school, and very quickly discover they are a bit home sick. It is surprising how helpful it is to receive a special BearMailExpress.com gift. It helps that college student have something to cling to from home, or from someone special. It is a visible and physical reminder that they are still loved. Such a simple thing can go a long way to boosting their morale," said Williford.
The stuffed bears and other animals are personalized with messages that customers create themselves, making each one a unique gift that will be kept for years to come. These are not just stuffed animals. These are unique and personal.
