I agree. I received 2 more mails from Mike. Here they are.

Hey, Hanna!

Yep, the 1/6 FA Battalion is pulling out in a few days. Going back to Germany. Ghost is actually a platoon in the Battalion. They sure won't need lights for a while; they are going on leave! (And seem very happy with that.)

Yes, I will soon pull out of Baquba and head back Khanaqin way. Will be nice to see the mountains and the river of oil and the Kurds...get away from all these crazy suicide bombers for a while.

I agree with you that even a few lights are better than none. Is there a way where somebody can send a "in care of any soldier package?"... wait a minute...i know just who to ask. this will take a few hours but will find out.

Talk with you later,

Mike

and #2:

Hanna,

I've got an answer to the question about distribution of lights. I spoke with 1SG Leonard Dulik who runs the mail service for this AO. 1SG Dulik told me about the "Any Soldier Program," and mentioned that you can find information about this program online.

1SG Dulik also said that you can mail lights to his postal facility in Iraq and they will distribute the lights. The packages should be addressed:

Any Soldier Program
c/o 1SG Leonard Dulik
877 AG Company
OIF3 FOB Speicher
APO AE 09393

1SG Dulik said that you are welcome to email him at:
leonard.dulik@us.army.mil

Good. It appears now that all we have to do is set up an account or central clearing house of some kind for donations and start collecting.

Perhaps a word to the vendor on the project might get a better break, even if on a larger amount.

In the meantime, in addition to Congress, a word to the editor of the local paper might also help. I'm writing the Las Vegas Journal and Review today.

the anysoldier.com program is excellent! We have participated in it for more than a year now and we need to continue to support our Troops.

I am very concerned that Katrina has taken our focus away from our men and women serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. We cannot let our Troops down...they cannot be forgotten....PLEASE support a soldier, even just a letter of encouragement means so much to these young men and women.
