My office put care packages together for the USMC son of one of our employees deployed in Desert Storm.

We included a string saw so he could build a folding chair from mortar crates. We also included magic markers for map overlays. I guess there were 40+ different items that could be used in the field.

A string saw, huh? I never would have thought of that. Thanx for the suggestion!!

I love finding out about more ways to show support for the men and women who are out there protecting those of us who dwell in this country. The e-mails I've received from the sailors the past couple of weeks show how much it means to them to know someone cares. I've gotten teary-eyed more than once while reading them.

Thanx again for posting that link!!
