That’s good, but I will ask you what I asked Drawsing. What fabulous things would you send the troops that you feel the need to share with the rest of us to show your superior thinking?
When my son was in Iraq, 2003-2004, the “Hobbit Hole” here at F.R. sent him and his company quality radios, the 2 way kind, as the ones the army supplied them were really crappy.
The members of the Hobbit Hole also sent them other things at their suggestion. Upon their return from Iraq, when they arrived in Seattle, Two of the members that lived in the area took my son and several of his friends out for a night on the town at their own expense.
I’ve lost the links to the two vanities I wrote about them (with pictures) but when my son came back, he sent marble engraved plaques to some of them acknowledging their support, the marble having been taken from one of Saadam’s palaces. I delivered one of them in person to a lady member in Texas. I live in Illinois.
What I did personally for my son, was pray for his safety and safe return night and day.
I never claimed to have “superior thinking”, nor do I think my thinking is superior. I’m a rather simple man in my own opinion but have a Supreme Savior whom I trust for everything.
