OPERATION SEASON'S GREETINGS BEGINS

In order to bring a "little piece of home" to our Troops overseas, we have joined our resources with ProudPatriots.com to kickoff our campaign.

Below we will explain to you everything you will need to know in order to help us bring some joy and happiness to our Troops.

Thank you to everyone that has already enthusiastically signed up to help. We greatly appreciate everything!

How can I help?

First, anything that you send is greatly appreciated.

Here are some of the items that have been requested:

- Phone cards (International)

- Music CD's, any genre including Christian to Rap music

- Books (Paperback or hardcover)
**Please steer clear of political books**

- DVD's (any genre of movies, but no pornography)

- Electronic handheld games (can be found at Walmart, Target, or Kmart)
**Make sure to send batteries as well**

- Socks (any size, they will fit someone)

- T-shirts (brown for work)
**We thought it would be cool if our Troops received a t-shirt from various States to show that the support is nationwide. Or you can make them at home and send them along!

- Portable MP3 or CD players
(Maybe several folks can go in together to do this.)
- Portable DVD or regular DVD players
**Also a project that a group of people could put together**
 

- Any XBox, GameCube, PS2 (Playstation 2) PSOne, DreamCast, Nintendo64, or Gameboy games. (Instead of buying new, you can find many used games locally at game stores. Make sure they aren't scratched, but they are just as good as a new one and cheaper.)

-Crossword puzzlebooks or any kind of brain teaser games.

- Footballs, Nerf footballs, soccer balls, basketballs, or baseball gloves, baseballs, or frisbees

- Christmas decorations

- Hanukkah decorations

***FOOD***

The weather is cooling down and therefore, CHOCOLATE is in order.

Any homemade cookies, candies, fudge, or brownies are greatly appreciated. We would ask that you package it in a tin with no rattling.

Any type of NATURAL Jerky is greatly appreciated as well. NO PORK.

Any type of candy bar, hard candy, or the like is also greatly appreciated.

***IMPORTANT***
Please pack everything in baggies.
 

As we get more requests from overseas, we will add to the list.

 

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW!!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Most people don't realize just how important a little something from home is to our men and women. Especially during the holiday season. It can be the difference between having another lonely day or having a wonderful holiday.

Items will be collected until November 15th, 2004.

If you would like to make a donation, you can do so at The Proud Patriots (please scroll down to the bottom).

If you would like to send a gift card, you may do so either online to proudpatriots@proudpatriots.com or you can send it to the address below. Thank you!

All items can be shipped to the following address:


Proud Patriots
26 Towne Centre Way
# 741
Hampton, VA 23666

After the items are received, they will be delivered to NCTAMS LANT DET HRDS where they will be packaged and sent to our various contacts in the region. Most of these items will go to specific units or to one of our designated Chaplains.

The contact people at NCTAMS LANT DET HRDS are IT1 John Young and ITCS Steven Reeves.

What is Proud Patriots?

Proud Patriots.com was started to help bring outside organizations in to provide care packages for our Troops. We began ProudPatriots.com almost 6 months ago. It has been a labor of love and we are finally getting everything in order to help our Troops in any way we can.

You would probably recognize the members of ProudPatriots.com  because they are from our own Canteen. Anyone that is interested in joining our cause, please email us at proudpatriots@proudpatriots.com .

If you would like to print out copies of the letters for your work, business, Church, clubs, or schools, you can do so by clicking on the above logo. Thank you!

If you have any further questions, please FReepmail Kathy In Alaska, Brad's Gramma, HiJinx, or MoJo2001.

If I were President, I would hire George W. Bush to be President.

[Khepri]

as President?

BOMB CANADA

That was for tesing purposes, now nuke Kashmir.

Retire to Mars.

[MoJo2001]

What If I Were President, What Would You Do?

We want to know!

[APFel]

If I were president, I would resign immediately. I am not qualified to be the most powerful man in the world.

[Mudcat]

Eliminate the income tax, eliminate the Dept of Education, and find out what's REALLY out there in Area 51.

[TFine80]

Eliminate the income tax. Close the Department of Education.

[writer33]

If I were President, I would no longer allow MoJo2001 to post anymore meaningless threads for the Canteen. :0 HA!

Just kidding, MoJo. :)

VOTE TODAY!

 

[hyperpoly8]

If I were elected President I would immediately work to reform the voting system across the country. I would require installation of the same type fingerprint scanners as we have at airports to screen foreign visitors. I think all Americans deserve to know that their vote is worth just as much as someone who isn't bound by ethics or morals not to cheat.

[Jet Jaguar]

Great post and question.

I would require all national leaders (who receive aid) to write a 1000 word essay on why they deserve our foreign aid. (including the UN)

Then pick the top ten and cease aide to the rest.

[MissAmericanPie]

I would put before the American public an ammendment to the Constitution banning any type of socialist program and globalist treaty what so ever, under threat of long mandatory prison terms.

Cut everyone's taxes to 10% and let the economy roll on, and secure our borders.

[Lady Jag]

As prez for a day, I would disband the UN, ACLU and NAACP and force the Democrat party to rebuild itself.

[uncleshag]

Ban rap music.





'nuff said.

[redrock]

1st thing I'd do (really) is appointment Michael Moore as Ambassador to some country.

One that still has cannibals.

Then I would send that country (after a few weeks of not hearing from the new Ambassador)...a few cases of some antacid as I'm sure they will still have acid indigestion.

There is a town in New Hampshire which traditionally votes at Midnight. I forget the name. Results should be coming in soon.

This early voting nonsense going on in numerous States is IMHO simply not a good idea. Voting is a responsibility, and it is being under minded by these new potential opportunities for voter fraud.

[homer777]

If I were President I'd want to (in no particular order):

1) Make election day a national holiday
2) Take a step towards getting our fiscal house in order by reducing waste in the procurement process of every agency
3) Open up the WH to tours again (I think it's restricted now, correct me if I'm wrong)
4) Work on truly securing the Mexican Border
5) Get congress to give me a line item veto
6) Deal with Saudi Arabia
