BALLOON TROOPER
"MISSION PAPER" SAMPLES!
Here you can copy a nice Mission Paper design or just learn how to make your own.
See image above for a sample Mission Paper. You can "copy and paste" it from the text below, or you can just make up your own. As long as Ground Allies know where to send their emailed SITREPs, your Balloon Trooper has a much better chance of not ending up MIA even if Recovered! The Mission Paper above was printed by regular PC computer and it uses a font size of 10 (smaller than the standard 12 font in order to be smaller when cut out.)
Once you have written or printed out your Mission Paper, you should cut it out to its smallest possible size, fold it in half, roll it up and tape it to your Balloon Trooper.
Use the text that follows if you wish to "copy and paste" this Mission Paper text into your own word processing software (you may need to format it again when you have it pasted into your own system):
"Hello Friends! You have Recovered a BALLOON TROOPER!
We hope he brings you a happy smile! Balloon Troopers are launched by Helium Balloon and then fly as far as they can during High Altitude Aerial (HAM) Missions. Completing their high-risk Missions depends on being found one day by friendly Ground Allies like you!
Our Balloon Trooper’s Name Is:_____________________.
He Was Launched By: _____________________________.
On This Date:___________________________________.

Please email a Recovery Situation Report (SITREP) to Balloon Trooper Headquarters Command at: BalloonTrooperHQ@att.net
Please send us a SITREP to let us know where and when you found our brave Balloon Trooper! He is currently on the Missing In Action List so we are very excited to learn how he is and how far he traveled on his HAM Mission! Please Relaunch our Balloon Trooper with a fresh Helium Balloon after you Recover him so that he can continue his Mission.
