I dunno, I could see handing college freshmen models of what their letters should look like and rather than put any effort into it, they just sign them and send them ...

Yeah, totally, but the thing is that some of them didn't recall seeing it, and in any case you're creating the impression that the local boys felt that they wanted to speak out about the conditions in Iraq and this is what they wanted to say, rather then that the management decided to get everyone to agree to make this statement. Its not a personal letter if its managed by the PR department...
