Oh boy, that means I've got to do my Christmas shopping this next week. In addition to the Christmas presents, I thought I'd also send some decorations for a Christmas "tree". My guys are in the desert, I hope they can scare up a bush or something to decorate.

I've been thinking the same thoughts...trying to come up with a light, compactable
"tactical XMAS tree; meets DOD specifications" for the good guys and gals "over there".
I'm gonna' strain my brain some more...

just a reminder to posters/lurkers that here's a chance to satiate that charitable impulse...
here's the bottom-line from the article:
If you want make sure your holiday packages arrive to service members
overseas on time, mail them by Nov. 13.
Otherwise, your package could very well be on the proverbial "slow boat to China,"...
Make sure our best-and-brightest have something to lighten up their holiday away from home!

and a reminder to the forum that NOVEMBER 13 is the general deadline for mailing
holiday care-packages.
SO...that means we're coming up on the last shopping weekend for our folks serving
in about 160 countries around the globe

I've been packing boxes all day. Here I am, the first week in November, playing Christmas songs as I pack the boxes. Now I'm hoping that they don't arrive so early that they can't resist opening them and spoil their Christmas.
