hey i got a buddy in iraq also one thing i have been told about sending care packages is keep any food seprate from soap or deoderant ect as possible, even putting them in seprate boxes if possible. cause the food will take on the smell and taste of the soap. i have been told.

I don't know if this is up his alley, but my girlfriends brother is on his third tour in Iraq and we have sent him a big bottle of mouthwash filled with alcohol on every tour. Just drop in some food coloring and you are all good. If you are not interested in that some good old Playboys are always appreciated. Also try sending the waterless shampoo, as it is sometimes difficult to find a shower/running water.

I'd say to ship some in-n-out burgers but I don't think they'd hold up too well. Though I feel you'd need help funding it, maybe an Ipod or some sorta music device filled with whatever he likes?

I have a paypal account. I just have to reactivate it. My cc expired. I'll let you guys know.

I'll pick his brain to see what else he might need.

haaaaaaa. I seriously considered sending some dry ice and some good food or something but the package takes time to get to him as it has to be redirected several times....hence I don't know where he's at.

He's airborne infantry. Marksmen. Dude is a savage. When he returns he's doing ranger school and they're pretty much telling him he'll get into sniper training. I'm glad he's doing it after he gets back. Hopefully he'll get out of there before they send him back into some more ****. He's into some heavy stuff. He always tells me what's up even when he's not suppose to...this time he won't. Just that his unit got or...damn it....next size up got split off from the rest of the batallion. I've got a couple photos I'll link up tonight or tomorrow.

I mail my stuff into Kuwait I think it is then they send it off to him...something like that. I have to check my new address.

Thanks everyone I really appreciate it and so will he.
