From a 5/2012 blog:

A special honour was received today, in the form of a U.S. flag from Afghanistan that was mounted to a helicopter in a recent mission. This was sent by a shareholder who is in this theatre of operations currently. We have immediately cleared a space in which to place the gift. Accompanying this flag and a photo of it on the helicopter was a letter quoting Roman emperor and philosopher Marcus Aurelius, in which the Roman considers how to preserve equanimity in the presence of conflict.

Approximately 40 countries have participated in the current Afghanistan mission, including many of the countries with which Winning Brands is currently doing business or intending to. On this basis, our shareholders internationally can also share in the spirit of this gift – a symbol of cooperation for a greater purpose. The choice of Marcus Aurelius is particularly apt for his reputation of commitment to service and duty.

This gift is now placed in the middle of the office as a reminder to us all about the wide reach of our shareholder family and the wisdom and goodwill that is present in this community. To that special shareholder, we hope that you will understand through this response how meaningful your gift has been to us.

Eric Lehner, CEO
Winning Brands



I hope that soldier is going to receive that 'bonus/gesture' from Eric!
