  The following letter was sent by email to the members of the Marching Blue Devils.

  It is reprinted as it was received.

   

   Band Members,
  
   I just wanted to take the time to thank-you for Tribute To A Generation. I have currently been serving in Operation Enduring Freedom

   for the past ten months and it means a lot to me to see my alumni supporting  all the troops that have served past and present.

   Although I will not be able to see or hear the performance this year, I have been told that it is one of the best ever.

   Congratulations on all your successes and good luck in future competitions.
  
  
   Staff Sergeant Mike Noll
   United States Army
   Faithful & Bold
