Here's a time honored tradition...
The USO has been there for Our troops from WWII up to the present -
currently a donation of $25 send's a care package to a soldier in the
field : pre-paid phonecards, sunscreen, toiletries & your card of thanks.
Just go to their site -
www.USOCares.org
And click on "Donate Now" - lest We forget.

If you can donate please do. The USO is the thing that get us service members to relax, think of home and for awhile be home. Thank Allen for the post.
S/F,
CEYA!

My wife and I have assembled a care package to send over to Iraq; I have a buddy who's over there right now, and have his address. He sent me a list of things that they're really yearning for, so we threw something together.
Tonight, my wife baked some home-made cookies, which are also going. I can't thank those guys enough for serving. Gob bless them all.

A cousin of my wife is in Marine boot camp. Care package has been prepared and is going out Monday. Maybe I'll send a :spyder: for graduation.
Thanks for posting this Allen.
The USO is good folks. They've been there through every war since WWII and probably before. They do a great job for our men in uniform abroad and here at home. They are a welcome respite for servicemen and women and their families at many airports around the US and the world. I can't count the number of times I used their services and the joy they brought when I served overseas. Ther USO is there but only if you care. Support those who support or soldiers.

Allen,
good job with this post. Fortunately, you have a sympathetic audience who will actually take a look at doing this. I agree with CEYA. The USO is a great place to go and relax, check your email, or just watch a movie with some other Marines or whoever. Thank you for your email,
Garrett

Morning guys and gals. Here @ Ft. Hood we encourage people to send things overseas to our brethren in arms. We are planning movie night for our guys.
they should like that, being in a palace and all. Candy, socks, Spydies(LOL),
mail, care packages, letters, pictures, it all helps these guys. Godspeed &
God bless every one of you who supports us. Ray

What java said. I'm bringing this back up during the Holiday season - I'm
sending one USO care package a month until this war's over. $25 I could
$pend on :spyder: but those 11s in the field need it more.
Keep'em flyin'!
