President Donald Trump wrote a simple and poignant Easter message to an anonymous soldier Monday, praising the military member's bravery and lauding the "great job" being done.
The message went out during Monday's Annual White House Easter Egg Roll – the first for Trump – as the president, first lady Melania Trump and their son Barron sat a picnic table with children to color cards to be sent to U.S. service members.
Grabbing a big Crayola marker from a box on the table, the president began to write, then asking the children to see what he had written, and turning the card around for the audience.
"Dear Brave Soldier," the president's message read. "Thank you for your service. Great Job! Donald Trump."
