As the commander of the

like to thank you for the
sacrifices you have made over the years. The efforts and contributions

allowing [Rank] [Last Name] time off to participate in
the Reserves are so critical. Weekend drill and annual
training are absolutely essential to maintaining
[his/her] military skills.

leading edge technology for mobile
communications. It also includes learning organizational, human relations, time,
and conflict
management skills, just to mention a few. The objective is to have a well
rounded combat
warrior, with exceptional leadership, management and technical skills ready to
handle any
situation on the battlefield and in today’s ever changing environment.
In closing, I thank you for your continued support and
cooperation. Your active
