Dave Update


I've been emailing with Dave pretty regularly, these days. Being the Comm Officer does have it's perks.

He finally has a hooch (tent) all to himself, which for Dave means a lot. He's a private person and doesn't like to share living space. He said it was dirty beyond belief, but he's made it clean and livable.

He also says the chow is much better than expected and the little PX (store) that they have there is supplied with the things that they need.

However he does have a list of things that they want, little things that make their lives a little nicer. If anyone would like to have the list and send something to him, email me.

On another note, they have way more of certain things than they can ever use in two lifetimes. So many well meaning charitable groups have been sending toothbrushes, toothpaste, baby wipes, and hand sanitizer....Dave says they have cases and cases.

So spread the news, Girl Scout troops, church organizations, etc....people that want to send things to the troops, stop sending the basics and start ASKING what the guys need.
