Dear Nancy,

Thank you for writing and telling me about the National Guard Youth Challenge Program at Alaska Military Youth Academy.  I am delighted to learn of the program's effectiveness in helping young people in need of a change of course and am sharing the information with my projects office.

Thank you also for the nice photograph of the AMYA students.  I hope I will be able to visit the Academy some day.

President Bush and I appreciate your kind words of support and send you and Governor Murkowksi our best wishes.

With warm regards,

Signed - Laura
