All under control for Bagram. I don't have time to post much because Thanksgiving is at my house and the latest count is 12. Painting & flooring of the guest rooms continues. I have individual gift bags for the 100 soldiers which I expect to ship Sat after T-day, but another week would still be okay. I'm still trying to think of a group gift for the unit.
Today I sent off the last boxes to the new unit in Baghdad -- 1 big 24 pound box and 3 flat rate boxes:
Big box:
2 bags chex mix
12 bags teddy grahams
60 individual packs hot chocolate mix
1 bag marshmallows
11 Christmas stockings, each filled with candy, nuts, mechanical pencils, ballpoint pens, memo pads, beef jerky, thick socks, handwarmers, and a candy cane.
Flat rate box 1:
1 big bag Christmas Hershey miniatures
1 big bag Christmas M&M's
1 gift travel pack (a WWII vet made these -- they include candy, cookies, snacks, kleenex, toothpaste, and toothbrush)
Flat rate box 2:
1 big bag Christmas Hershey kisses
3 gift travel packs
Flat rate box 3:
1 big bag trail mix
1 Claxton fruitcake -- had to do it :o)
2 gift travel packs
Christmas tree and decorations were sent earlier.
