Good Afternoon Sir,

My name is (USAFA Jewish cadet’s name withheld), and I am a member of the Jewish Community at USAFA. I was informed of your organization by my friend (USAFA cadet’s name withheld). Recently the new Superintendent has completely overhauled the funding system at USAFA, for all organizations that use gift funds, which has caused us to likely be unable to attend Jewish Warrior Weekend. This is a bi-annual event hosted at the various service academies, which allows Jewish Cadets and Midshipmen from around the country to connect with the entire Jewish military community. Never in past years have we faced this problem, as our attendance at this semester’s event is still in the air. All of this comes as this past weekend as I entered the dining facility (Mitchell Hall), I was surprised to see an online church sermon from New Life Church on the Mitchell Hall projector. I find this incredibly offensive, as I call USAFA my home, as I prefer to not be pseudo-proselytized to while I eat my meal. I appreciate your help. I would like to keep my anonymity regarding this issue, and be referred to as “Jewish Cadet.”

Respectfully,

Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx
