    Addresses requested

    Hello everyone. Before I ask for favors, I thought I'd introduce myself. I spent most of my time on the Gfs/Wives forum, but sometimes I venture up here to hear what the men have to say. My name si Meghan and I'm 22. My cousin, brother and fiance are all Marines. Apparently it has become an epidemic in my family because this is the first generation of Marines amongst them.

    Anywho...I have a favor to ask! My mom is a 1st grade teacher and her school put together 40+ boxes of toiletries, food, etc to send to our troops. I am thankful to have both my brother and fiance safely in the states, but I know many people are missing their loved ones. I know of websites such as AnyMarine.com, but before we send these boxes out I wanted to ask if you guys knew of anyone in particular who might need some supplies. I'd hate to think of anyone on the board not beinga bel to send their loved ones anything, and we'd like to help. If you know of any Marines overseas who aren't getting letters, packages, etc, please let me know. I know because of OPSEC you can't post the addresses here, but if you want to email me or send me a PM, that would be great!

    Thanks so much!!

    We have a few Marines and other services that the Moms send boxes to on the holidays.  If you want to send boxes to children of the some of the Moms and Dads on the board, I can get some for you.  I believe we have about nine or ten.
