    Sending packages to the Troops

    I get alot of questions about what to send to the guys/gals fighting the war over seas. I have been in contact with a few places that helped us(my unit) and me personally while i was deployed..If you would like to send something to the guys/gals over there here is the first place that i recommend:
    Cindy J. McGrew
    President
    Operation Second Chance, Inc.
    301.938.2834
    www.operationsecondchance.org
    www.cindymcgrew@operationsecondchance.org

    There are alot of em out there but this is the one that i delt with personally..Also Cindy KICKS ASS!!

    As a veteran of iraq i cant express how much a package is appreciated. Anything from beef jerky to playing cards. Hell i still have a christmas card i got from a 6 year old. Oh yeah and a can of copenhagen definately hits the spot..

    Hell... I have a free subscription to STUFF magazine that I can't hardly keep up my reading on. I definitely don't need it.

    Somebody give me a "Change Of Address" to submit to the publisher and I'll do it today.

    Re: Sending packages to the Troops

    Anything that you can think of too send that would kill time is a good thing...

    -Hand held games (Solitaire, Poker, Etc)

    -Any Non-perishable food items

    -Magazines

    -Personal Hygeine items

    -DVD Movies

    That kinda stuff...And if you are really feeling charitable, there are LOTS of little villages with kiddos that have nothing and can use everything from socks, to clothes and so on.
    The more you sweat in peace...The less you bleed in war.

    Damn! Those "freelance" guys over there are making some serious gouda. They should be donating gameboys to the troops!

    a dozen decks of cards and a book on card tricks will be on the way shortly.

    I'll see what else i've got. I sent my brother a lot of stuff last year.

    I'd send my tv if i could, seriously.
