Molly's Adopt a Sailor project

As a group, we would like to adopt a group of sailors and send letters and/or packages. I think we N4M could make a big difference in some sailors lives if all of us would just write one letter (you can do more if you want)

Support our Sailors

What is the most critical or best thing I can send?
Your SUPPORT! This is NOT an attempt to resupply the military, or fix every logistical problem. What counts here is the morale of the Sailor. Send a letter or a new Army tank, they both help, but a Sailor that knows he/she has the support of the folks at home will use that tank far better than without the support.
Count on that.

We will continue to do our best to list the items requested by the Sailors.

Again, this is not an effort to get you to spend a bunch of money, it is about you sending support to those who give us the freedom to express our thanks for our freedom.

Will I get a thank you from the Sailor that gets my package?
We hope you do, but we do not guarantee it.

The Sailors are under no obligation to reply. They can't be. We can't burden Sailors are busy doing there jobs. Sure can't have their leadership tell them to reply either. If you get a reply, it is voluntary by that Sailor.

However, if you want to really increase your chances of getting a reply, simply pre-address an envelope to yourself, a few pieces of paper, and maybe a pen and put them in your package. No need for a stamp on the envelope. In your letter to the Sailor which you also put in the box, ask him/her to drop you a quick note or more and ask if there is anything in particular you can send.

Many of the troops are asking that you include your email address in your letters and boxes if you would like a reply or thank you. This is of course far easier for the troops that have Internet access. This is completely voluntary on your part and does not guarantee a reply. But it helps.

I mailed off yet another pkg to my son today and the lady at the counter made the comment that she has seen that zip code quite often lately! I also asked about the FRB and she said those post offices with computers shouldn't have any problems, the discount should be done automatically. However, there are those places that don't have all the modern computer technology (or the staff the knows what it's doing....her words, not mine) and therefore, don't always know the latest, greatest updates! If they dont give you the discount, tell them! And don't take NO for an answer (again, her words, not mine)

My son is also on a frigate and yes, compared to carriers or destroyers, they are tiny little things in a great big world! But my son loves the fact that there are only about 200 on the ship so he can get to know them. (it's also easier to adopt the whole ship than some of the larger ones)

Love the picture of the Crommelin! I thought I saw a few wearing Hula skirts and Hawaiian shirts! Lol!

Have a great Thanksgiving everyone!!
