I sent him several pairs of really good Thorlo socks, and about 20 pairs of black wallymart socks. When I got them all back in his effects, I sent a giant box of socks back to the dam. Socks and Skittles and Starbursts and Gummi Bears seemed to be the hot items at the time :)
God bless you, USMCPOP. I can’t imagine how appreciative these men were.
