ewlyweds Tony Clayton and Jeana Johnson-Clayton had a simple request.
Instead of the usual wedding gifts, they wanted long-distance calling cards. Not for themselves -- but for the GI's in Iraq. The couple married last month in Port Angeles, Wash., and got their wish.
They have nearly 60 calling cards and more are still arriving. It's a personal issue with them. The new bride's son is a Marine who will soon be deployed to war zone.
The Claytons said they'll be sending all the cards overseas -- so the troops will be able to phone home for the holidays.

How wonderful of this couple!
What a perfectly WONDERFUL idea!
May God greatly Bless them for their kindness!
