Abigail Adams has posted some info at 127 about Operation AC which is sending boots to soldiers.

Daybreakcoming posted at 116 a thank you she got from Tal Afar for books she sent for their new library.

Contents of a large box of clothing and shoes/socks for soldiers in Afghanistan to give to the poor is posted after the email from Kosovo. I was going to mail it Saturday, February 18, but the post office closed 2 hours early so they won't go out till Tuesday, tomorrow.

Anybody else who can send gently used clothing/shoes/sandals/socks to Afghanistan, or buy a few sale items for kids, please contact me for the APO to use for our Operation Spring Cleaning donations for the poor.

We still need volunteers to send care packages sent to Tall 'Afar. Most requested items from soldiers: small size American brand candy bars (chocolate can only be sent till the end of March), air freshener (don't pack in same box with candy), books, magazines.

PENPAL (single young woman) wanted for a single, 31 y/o chaplain in Afghanistan. If you have a daughter or friend who might be interested, let me know and I'll email you his picture.

Our contact at Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan sent us a box of souvenir items. I'll be sending the blue burka to nina0113 for all her work as team captain for Bagram and she promises to post a picture of her wearing it.

We're still waiting for the APO from our new adopted unit that is settling in at a base near the Syrian border without any amenities. Txsleuth has already bought a bunch of little boxes of Crystal Lite drink flavor mix for them and waiting for APO to send them.
