First, I need to mention the wonderful organizations like Soldier’s Angels and Treats for Troops who provide carepackages to troops for free. However, that is not what this is about, so I’ll move on.

There is nothing like receiving a package from home.  You come in fro a long hot sweaty 130+ degree day on patrol.  You and your team smell horrid and your wiped.  You are barely able to walk, let alone reset the trucks for the next day, but you do.  Then comes the mail handler with mail from home.  There are several boxes and you receive one from your family.  Suddenly the day just got good.
