Hello Amos
I recently travelled around places where Australian troops are based in Afghanistan.
As well as distributing pens among my own troops, I gave a number of pens to the other Chaplains, or "Padres", in Tarin Kowt.
This photo shows Chaplain Kerry Bartlett and Chaplain Ren McRae keen to distribute pens among their own troops.
Our deployed personel really appreciate an unexpected gift of such value, especially as the pens are from specially selected materials, generally recognised as crafted from a little bit of Australian timber. They provide a great boost for the morale!
The pens are so popular.... we could give out many more.
Blessings
