If anyone is still sending magazines out, I could use some here! 8 hour tower shifts are boring me like crazy.

I work for an automotive aftermarket company and we have a ton of hot rod, street rod and muscle car mags lying around. Any of you guys that are gearheads, please PM me your address and I will send out a care pack.

Also very welcomed were travel/individual wet wipes. We're with the ANA all day with no way to wash our hands. Hands get filthy just working in this environment, but we shake some of the nastiest hands 100x a day until our hands are black with something. For what it's worth, they use their left hand in lieu of toilet paper. You forget and go to wipe your eye or mouth and it's over. This might sound odd, but Preparation-H large wipes are great at cleaning places wet wipes are too harsh for since they just have witch hazel in them. Getting the opportunity to take a hot shower once a week with potable water isn't uncommon. People would also fight for those Swiffer sweeper dusting cloth refills wet or dry - as it resembles the moon over here. Dental floss and tooth brushes are welcome sights too. Me, personally... I'm craving a Red Bull Cola. Actually... I'm craving a cold shot of Sauza Hornitos tequila with lime/salt and an ice cold Dos Equis Amber, but I'll have to wait until next year for those. :-) A HUGE thank you to Hayboy for the awesome care package for my Combat Advisor Team! How many different magazines do you subscribe to?? LOL. The baby wipes are definitely getting utilized and I smell like baby powder as a result. :-) And who doesn't like Lifesavers?? Very awesome especially coming from someone who WAS a complete stranger.

The Thank Yous are all on my end. For the job all of you are doing, with all the ignoring of the good things you are doing by the press, and not knowing if the next step you take will be politicaly incorrect––THANKS OUR MILITARY makes me so Proud. If I can do some small thing that makes even one moment better, then let me do it. hayboy
IF YOU CAN READ THIS THANK A TEACHER FOR THE FREEDOM TO READ IT THANK OUR SOLDIERS |

I apologize for taking nearly a month to reply––my internet is on the fritz, and I rarely access my subscriptions from my phone. I'd say the SGNs are from the last six months offhand. Let me know. |

I've been wanting to send a package for a while but didn't know where to start. I've got a freaking crap ton of gun mags and old hot rod mags. My wifes making me clean out the 4ft stack in the living room.
Can someone post the do's/don'ts and some how to info on shipping to the troops? How long does it take packages to get there? *edit* Used my google-fu and found some answers. Ehow Sending Packages to the Troops. Now I need some addresses. PM me. Think I'll try to do atleast 4 boxes. Let me know if there is something specific you need.  |
