If you are not supporting the TROOPS, Why Not? They are OUR Troops!

Things I need: Sun Block lotion for my flesh, flea collars for my ankles [sand fleas are terrible], coolers for my neck [scarf that cools] and snacks for energy.

I also need: Chap Sticks for my lips, cotton Q Tips to clean out my ears, hand lotion to refresh my skin and foot powder to santize my boots.

If you think lying in these sand fox holes is fun, trying doing it and not being able to take a shower. Sure could use some baby wipes and small packages of tissue I can carry in the pocket of my uniform.

Right now I need: Eye drops, hand sanitizers, small toothpaste and brushes, and small size mouthwash

Wish I had some small children's toys I could stuff in my big pockets for times like this

When I get off this patrol I hope there is a Share Package waiting for me with cookies, nuts, chewing gum and Granola Bars.

When children send me things like this I get goose bumps all over

We heard they were sorting out the share packages inside so we gather in defense [plus that puts us first in line]

This small light gift and the rest of these items just make my day!

Where is my kit? I need deodorant, razors, band aids, and nail clippers.

What kind of snacks do I want? Popcorn, beef jerky, cup-of-soup, lemonade and koolaid mix, gatoraid and jelly beans.

Those little hand held battery operated fans would be great about right now [don't forget the batteries.

Lord, please send us some good Bibles so we can study Your Word and then when we leave give them to our new friends.

Please send some Phone Cards, this might be my last call home!

Wish I had some pencils, pens, notebook papers for these school children

Sand in my throat, could use some peppermints or cough drops.

Thanks GI's for sharing your tea and snack crackers with me

After this long walk I could use some foot powder and some Ramen Noodles

Did you say Mail Call? Give me a minute to finish up here and I will be right over.

Hey GI! You got gum?

Ok I confess, some of the Baby Wipes you sent went to original purposes

When you are in the field for weeks at a time, with no opportunity to shower, those wipes and deodorant pads make a difference

Don't forget us guarding the seas and coastline, we need packages too.

When I am on the line for weeks and months - Mail Call becomes more important than Chow Call
