Veterans Day

Hello All,

Hope all is well on your side of the world. I’ve had a bunch of people ask what we need over here. While it’s definitely not necessary for anyone to send anything, if they do feel inclined to put together a care package below is a list of some nice to haves that are a little hard to come by. My Marines and I very much appreciate anything that is sent. I don't have everyone's email address, so if they ask, feel free to pass the list on. Thank you in advance.

Personal Wipes - or unscented baby wipes
Toilet Paper - stuff here is like cardboard
Coffee Creamer - individual liquid packets that doesn’t require refrigeration (powder type goes bad real fast)
Sugar in the Raw - individual packets
Tooth Paste - Travel Size
Deodorant - Travel Size
Hand Sanitizer - Travel Size
Body Wash - Travel Size
Q-tips - Travel Size
Cold Medicine - Examples: Sudafed, Dayquil, Mucinex, Cough Drops, etc.
Eye Drops - Visine or similar (a lot of dust out here)
Oatmeal - Individual serving packages

And we do get a little free time once in a while…so if you have any old DVDs or Darts (steel tip) that are collecting dust that you don’t mind never seeing again those would be very welcome also.

Again, please don't feel like its necessary to send anything. I'm only providing this because so many have asked.

Here’s the address just in case. Thanks again.

CWO3 TURNER, GARY E.
II MEF (FWD) C-8 COMPT
UNIT 73920
FPO, AE 09510-3920

Thanks,
Gary
