Mike - I hope you can get this message out to more people.
A friend of mine in the Air Force is deployed to Iraq for a second time. There are 40 enlisted people from his unit that live on a base without any store to buy items. The Army Air Force Exchange (AAFES) have Post Exchange (PX) stores on many bases in Iraq but not on their base. Military service members and contractors can buy personal hygiene items, food, snacks, soda, Gatorade, military clothing, books, magazines, DVDs, electronics, etc. from the PX stores. It provides a nice break from the hardships and dangers of Iraq. And that saves the families of military personnel from paying for the necessities of life here and shipping them to their loved ones in Iraq. Theses service personnel and their families need your help. I have already sent 2 boxes to Iraq and I hope you can join me and send a box. You can go to any store and buy whatever is on sale and any size. They need everything and nothing will go to waste. You can send hand sanitizer, foot powder, tooth paste, disposable razors, shampoo, etc. - the usual personal hygiene items. Also, may I suggest some candy, cookies, books, DVDs, playing cards or small games. You'll need to ship the box from a U.S. Post Office and complete a customs form to list what is in the box.
