Pat, Hit up some co-workers, should have a good mix of magazines, and books. Aside from my staples of hotrod and gun mags. Figuring on throwing in other stuff as well. Will probably get it out to you Thursdayish...

Thanks Thomas, I've got about 10, or so, pledges to send stuff. When I get as much as I can send at one time, I'll take a pic of the stuff and post it and hopefully we'll get word from RAS when they receive it. Thanks again.

It will come as no surprise to anybody that Mickey Coleman was the first to stand up.

Our township fire department does that also. It is amazing the amount and variety of stuff we get.
Don't know if helps, but we are lucky enough to have a place will deliver it, and it doesn't cost us anything to get it shipped overseas.
Best of luck to you with this!

No surprise. I already send stuff. I know you do, I do too, but my other packages go to Japan. Lots of folks don't know where to start, so I just figured I'd make it easy on 'em!

I used to send stuff often before my cousins all retired from the Marine Corps. This is great way to get back into doing it again.

Pat the box will go out tomorrow. Got a few DVDs of random movies and comedians, some skydiving magazines, some music magazine, car and gun mags, and might score some candy or such as well.

Lotta flotsam comes across the internet, including the Fire. But it is more than balanced out by enterprises like Pat's initiative.
I was not smart enough to think of this, but it is no surprise that Pat was. Good on 'ya Pat.

Great initiative Pat! Our son in law has 2 tours under his belt over there and the things he liked most was canned foods (ravioli, spaghetti,) and instant mashed potato packets. Stuff to make bottled water tastier like mentioned before was also high on the list and anything media related. We do a package drive monthly thru the Legion Post here and people really support it. Good luck with your endeavor. We'll see what we can get coming your way.

Thanks all, nothing really on my part. RAS gave me the place to send stuff, which the hardest part. Like I said earlier, the police department wants to pick up shipping, so all I have to do is have fun and feal good.

Gonna check out the video's at St. Vincents tomorrow and try to get something headed your way Pat. I had a GREAT turn out from the 'fire back in 2006. One guy even sent a bunch of homemade jerky including Goose that went over big time with my nephews unit.
