Dear [Employer]:

     As the commander of the [unit name], I would like to personally thank you for your efforts in providing exceptional support to [Rank] [First Last Name] who voluntarily serves in the Air Force Reserves.

     The Air Force Reserves now accounts for about half of our total military forces and are being called upon more often to defend our country. Since Sept. 11, 2001, more than 309,000 National Guard and Reserve personnel have been mobilized for the war on terrorism. This number reflects nearly 60,000 more reservists activated than in During Desert Storm and for longer periods of time.

     This is why it is extremely important that [Rank] [Last] attend weekend drills and annual training. It provides [him/her] the necessary military training and skills to be prepared for the battlefield of the 21st century.

     We appreciate your professionalism and commitment to the Air Force Reserve. It is one thing to have a positive company policy toward your Guard and Reserve members – it is another to have those policies reinforced by enthusiastic and supportive managers, such as yourself.

     You and [Company]’s unwavering and substantial commitment to supporting Reserves and the military community is vital to our national defense.

                                                                                                      Sincerely,




                                                                                                      [FIRST M.. LAST], [Rank], USAFR
