ssshhh
I should not tell you this, but don't feel bad for not giving. I'll explain:

Mass giving...NO

If you give, try to stick to the items requested. There just ain't enough air transportation opportunities and the items end up getting stored in a hanger sometimes for years. Sometimes they will find there way to "family Support" centers which is still good because they give it to GI's or the family.

Despite what you see on television about folks not supporting the troops, the truth is Americans are very generous.

The biggest thing you can give, if you live near a base, is your time as a baby sitter, transportation help to any spouses in need, or donations to the local "family support" center.

If you must send stuff to the combat zone troops and really want to make sure it gets there. Get an address of one of them and send it directly. They HAVE to deliver mail.
