Dear Exact Name of Person: (or Dear Sir or Madam if answering a blind
ad.)
With the enclosed resume, I would like to make you aware of my
background in logistics and distribution operations with an emphasis on
experience in purchasing.
As you will see from my resume, during my approximately seven
years of military service I have become proficient in operating and
training others in the operation of the Unit Level Logistics Supply
System 4 (ULLSS-4) database. With experience in procuring supplies
and equipment, supervising and mentoring employees, and presenting
briefings which allow executives to gain information concerning supply
activities, I have earned a reputation as a self-motivated professional
who can be counted on to get the job done right the first time.
Familiar with the Department of Defense (DoD) contracting
process, in several assignments I have been credited with saving
government funds through my initiative and resourcefulness. I have been
cited as the key force in developing sources for obtaining equipment and
supplies from outside the standard military channels by using civilian
sources for lower cost and reduced waiting times. Presently in control of
purchasing for a 120-person organization, I purchase an average of $13
million in equipment quarterly while controlling a $10 million inventory
of electronics and communication gear, food, furniture, and other classes
of supplies.
The recipient of two U.S. Army Commendation Medals and two
U.S. Army
Achievement Medals in recognition of my professionalism and
dedication, I also was awarded the Humanitarian Service Medal for my
contributions during hurricane cleanup efforts.
If you can use a resourceful and creative professional who is known
157

for sound judgment and for getting results, I hope you will welcome my
call soon when I try to arrange a brief meeting to discuss your goals and
how my background might serve your needs. I can provide outstanding
references at the appropriate time.
Sincerely,
Fred Hall
