Letter: Pesach as a Lone Soldier

by Anonymous

File Photo: Farbrengen for lone soldiers at Mordy Botnick’s ‘the Rebbe’s Infantry.’

I’m a soldier, AKA I.D. # 7756395. While that’s my identity on base, this letter is to convey my appreciation of and gratitude to the people who remind me of my true identity. My story is not unique to me; it involves many of my comrades as well. Most of all it is about those who care for us. Moreover, the events that I write about are not in the past but ongoing, each week.
