I sent a couple of e-mails to my former coworkers and supervisors in Al Qa'im, Iraq, in order to stimulate interest in retrieving the aforementioned door bearing the tribute to Jason. Awaiting a reply.

Thank you for working on retrieving the door. I don't know if there's anything I can do, but if I can, I will.

Below, is the address of the base at Al Qa'im, Iraq, where Jason's parent HQ was formerly located. A new marine unit is now on the ground, relieving the unit that relieved Jason's unit. Is that clear as mud? Perhaps a letter writing campaign is in order, petitioning the US Marine Commander to secure the door for proper respect and dispension. FYI, It takes about 2 weeks for mail to reach the forces on the ground in Iraq. USMC
Al Qa'im, USMC Commander
FOB Al Qa'im (AQ)
APO-AE 09333

This is a wonderful idea. I will add:
National Museum of the Marine Corps
18900 Jefferson Davis Highway
Triangle, VA 22172
Toll Free: 1.800.397.7585

Commandant of the Marine Corps

Quantico, VA 22134-5030

This is do-able. A request to honor our LadyX was fulfilled beyond expectation by the CO at Parris Island in short order.
