Vets Day Idea list of things to send to Military Personnel in
P. O. Box 710 – City Hall, Westminster, MD, 21158
November 11, 2003
Today, on Veterans Day – as every day, it is important that we not only remember our men and woman in uniform serving our country and protecting our freedoms, but it is particularly important that we do something to support them. One way that you can help our military as they serve us, is to send them some items they need.
Scott Jeznach, who works for The City of Westminster, recently found the following request in the 82nd Airborne Division Association newsletter of October 2003:
Our troops in Iraq are in need of hard-to-get supplies and would be most grateful for any assistance we can give them.
They have requested baby wipes with Aloe, bar soap, deodorant, foot cream, foot powder, sun block, chapstick, disposable razors, shaving cream, hand lotion, q-tips, batteries, fans, insect repellent, paper, pens, envelopes, stamps, nuts, beef jerky, hard candy, gum, snacks and powdered drinks.
December 20th, 2006 UPDATE:

CSM Thomas Beyard
TF AVCRAD 06-08
LTC David E. Smith
