Support our troops

My family is sending a package to our soldiers fighting in Afghanistan. If anyone is interested- what the soldiers request the most is letters. Address your letter "Dear Soldier" and Larry, the army soldier who will be receiving our package, will hand out the letters to one of the 42 men in his group. This group is from Missouri, many from rural areas and will be there until March 2008.
It is suggested that you include an email address if you want and just write a simple letter about yourself the way you would to a friend.
This group also said they like movies and games so we are sending some DVD's and decks of cards, cribbage board and stuff like that.
Place your letter in an envelope and write "Any Soldier" on it and I will include it in our box.
I am hoping to mail it out after our April meeting. Gert
