Yesterday we mailed off 100 pair of Sheath Underwear to the organization known as Socks for Soldiers Inc. Socks for Soldiers Inc. donates socks and...well, underwear now, to soldiers serving overseas. They are not interested in the politics of the war, but simply showing support for our troops and providing them with comfortable clothes. Sheath's President and CEO, Robert Patton, has served in the middle east twice himself, so he knows what it's like to feel appreciated and to get gifts from organizations like Socks for Soldiers Inc.
Patton had this to say about the donation:
"It is not much but we want to give as much as we can. How lucky are we to even be in a position to donate. Thank you."
Thanks to Robert's wife, Devin, for the amazing idea to donate to our heroes serving in the middle east. We want to make these donations a regular thing.

I've been with Socks for Soldiers since not long after the group was founded as a knitter and a knitting mentor and as the mother-in-law of a Sgt in the USAF who just finished his 5th deployment and who received socks from the group. Thank you for your support of the group and God Bless Y'All for helping to take care of the men and women of the US Military.

A donation you see as "little" is received as "huge". Not only by the Socks For Soldiers group, but also by the men and women serving in the military who will get the privilage of wearing them. Thank you for the donation.

Well, maybe not the women so much, but for sure the men.

Thank you for your donation to socks for soldiers, and ultimately the troops. I've decided to check out your merchandise for my husband (who is TDY, not deployed). I never would have heard of your company had it not been for your generous donation.
