Mine wont hardly request anything also. What she did request ( navy shorts) and thats what I sent.... a pair of navy colored shorts.  She wanted Navy uniform shorts for pt. Well, boy did I feel bad.  She just had to get them on her own.  :(    I told her to just throw the shorts I sent her over the fence of the Afgahnies.

PS..... It sure feel "Great" being back on this site listening & reading every ones posts. The Holidays kept us busy with visiting our daughters family in NJ, with our 2 grandchildren!!! In the mean time, our oldest son left for his deployment on his sub.They stopped off at their 1st Port, & we were able to Skype with him during these past couple of days. Having 2 deployed now is pretty scarey, but I know how much everyone is praying for both of them.

Texas Doc, I believe they are flowing from churches & other groups over there. Our BSMA rec'd pics & letters of appreciation & gratitude during the holidays of packages we had sent over there. Plus, my M-in-L signed him up at her church to receive care packages over there. Not sure if he ever rec'd anything from them. He didn't want "Me" to give out his name as a recipient, but his "Nanny" made sure he was!! She's "90" and nobody tells her what she can or can't do!!!!  Any time I sent him out a package, it's pretty much a guess on my part. Even if it's just "1" item that puts a smile on his face for that day, it's well worth it! I just tell him to share & give away to the others what he doesn't need or want in my package. I always send a couple of beef jerky packages no matter what with every package! (hah, that's not a guess,that's a for sure item).

The only things my son made a special request for...salsa (no Pace), some seasonings, and dart repair stuff. He said the dart boards were in terrible shape whereever they went, so I sent all kinds of dart stuff and a couple of sets of new darts. He told me that "packages come every day, and we just dump them on the floor and take what we want and toss the rest."....I don't know if packages are flowing like that to Afghanistan from churches, etc. I doubt they do that with packages from HOME.

Well, I sent the "Purex Product Sheets" anyways, (along with some other goodies). That's what he wanted & I'll send him "Anything" he wants,(even though I know that's not a product I would use)! It's like pulling teeth to get him to request anything. I was so excited when he actually 'requested' something. ;))

Maybe they use them as a room deodorizer or stick them in their boots and shoes. :)

Mine want the lil detergent ball thingys. says they hide them in their dirty laundry hope the person on laundry detail wont see them and hopefully will make their laundry smell better. :)
