Yes, it's a deployed px...burnt slap to the ground last week. My chaplain friend told me about it.

The article is a in .pdf format...gotta have that acrobat reader, you know. I'm reading the latest edition right now, called the Desert Devil Dispatch.

I know they'll probably never miss a beat, and have it built back asap. But Hair says they have to buy that stuff in the PX. If I send it, that's one last thing a soldier will have to buy. So I'm in touch with a chaplain that is letting me send things for him to distribute. He used to be the youth minister at my best friend's church.

Then, a local box making company donated packaging boxes...nice sturdy boxes and all you have to do is run by and pick them up. I picked up 25 for my self and my homeschool group. The guy giving them away also gave addresses of four deployed Marines. He said they were completely overwhelmed with the response. Just a couple of days after it was on the news, they had given away FOUR THOUSAND BOXES and the employees of the company stayed over on their own time and made 4000 more!

I was laughing and saying to Steve "What if those 4 Marines on the list the guy gave were the only ones to receive the packages? Those four guys would receive a thousand packages each!! They'll be popular!"
