Halliburton Organizes Feast for Soldiers

US oilfield service Halliburton is planning to serve the US troops in Middle East, on Thanksgiving feast.

The company?s chairman and CEO Dave Lesar explained, "Halliburton is committed to making sure all the troops feel a little closer to home every day, but particularly on a day like today."

"We're thankful for what the troops are doing and we're also thankful for our employees and the many other civilian contractors who are currently away from home today."

As part of the Logistics Civil Augmentation Program contract, Halliburton subsidiary KBR has extensively planned all the festivities down to the pumpkin pie for the troops.

"Thanksgiving Day is an important holiday for most Americans and a time when we reflect on what we value most. That is why KBR goes 'all out' for the holiday to make sure everything we do, from preparing and presenting the traditional meal to decorating the dining facilities, makes the troops feel a little closer to home and appreciated for their sacrifices," said Chuck Doherty, KBR Food Service Project Manager in the Middle East.
