Just to actually put out the facts about what our troops overseas need, go to this website: http://www.poncacity.com/spirit/

They put hundreds of packages together weekly to send out. They contain items that the troops actually need and want by their request. Some weeks it changes according to the donations. Its a great cause. If you want to help, and don't know where to go, check these folks out.
BTW, its all volunteer. Nobody gets a dime to do this. They will accept money donations to help cover shipping.

Thank you for helping our troops!

Having spent over 6 years overseas with a family at home, I can assure you that "mail call" is the peak of your day.

Been downloading a bunch of books to burn and send. Using tuebl.com. Last boxes I sent had bulk candy like from SAMs. Buddy told me he was sharing with his men who don't get much. Figured this batch would be more for them. Bulk stuff and ziplock baggies for distribute

Don't forget cards, dice,board games, books
