Hello all at madjacks this is neverteaseit I am currently serving in Baghdad at this time. If possible we would ask for your help. Us soldiers don't wanna seem like beggers but it is very hard for us to get items here in Iraq. The px gets mortared constantly and shelf items are very limited. If possible we are looking for care packages from the states. We don't need high dollar items it is the small thing we miss the most. Some hardly get anything at all from the states and I share with all.
Local newspapers from various cities, hard candy for the iraqi kids who keep us from harms way. They tell us what roads not to travel that have IED'S or where an Ambush may occur. The kids here are more than willing to help especially if e have candy. We will take produst from a dollar general store, like foot powder, baby wipes, body lotion,crackers and beef sticks with the chesse in the package. The food here sucks lol, so some of us eat like birds. We have plenty of sunblock, chapstick and batteries.
If you could as people in your communities,churches,etc. willing to help out it would not go unappreciated. We miss all back home for sure but we all have a mission to do here and any support is greatly appreciated.
We will continue to preserve freedom for others who want it, and to keep those at home safe. We came here not by our wishes but we still have a job to do and we conitnue to do it everyday, most of us work 12-15 hours a day 7 days a week. Plus we are being mortared 5-10 times everyday. But we still have not lost a soldier yet from our brigade
. The only incidents so far has been soldiers poisoned from food they ate from people in Iraq. Most of the time we take it out of kindness and discard it but these guys ate it and became very ill but they are all ok now. Some also got injured when a mortar hit the outdoor area at the px but none critically injured.
Thank you so much!!!! GOD BLEES AMERICA
