Dear Steve D,
My name is 1LT Peter Galeotti and I am a Platoon Leader with 3rd
Platoon, Alpha Company, 2-7 Infantry Regiment stationed at Firm Base 4,
Hit, Iraq.
Unfortunately, due to our proximity to the local populace we cannot conduct a lot of PT
outside. I used to be a rock climbing instructor in college (the
Venture program at UNC Charlotte) and I'm trying to put together an
indoor climbing wall here. We have massive concrete walls that would be
perfect for bouldering setups.
I am writing you today to see if you would be interested in sponsoring
such a climbing wall. We would need a minimal amount of holds and the
required hardware to attach them to a concrete wall. I am hopeful that
if it becomes popular, we will be able to take up a collection to buy
more holds. Also, if it took off well enough my soldiers would need to
purchase some basic climbing gear such as shoes and chalk bags. I could
hang posters of your company and leave catalogs out for their perusal.
If you would be interested in helping make this a reality, please email
me back at your earliest convenience. With the news of our deployment
extending to 15 months, we still have 12 months to go. so any help
passing the time would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Peter C Galeotti
1LT, IN
Platoon Leader
