Thank you for the 2 boxes. The Marines of 773 appreciate the support from you. Its getting cold out here at last. The E-mergency will come in handy. Marine's feet can definately use that powder.

As always Tom you the MAN!!!

See Ya, Chief

Tom, I would like to say thank you for your hard work on this program you are a credit to America.

Tom,

You are proof that one Man can make a difference.

I buy the stuff, put it in a box and take it to the post office, no big deal. It is all of our member's donations and fund raisers that make it happen.

Thanks Tom...
GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS!!!

I am working on the next RKS newsletter and I will include the following in the introduction for RKS members that do not have internet access:

The "Soldier Care Package Program". This is a special internet project on KnifeTalkForums.com, Randall Forum, where members are donating money for care packages for our soldiers in Iraq. These packages contain items that our soldiers do not have access in Iraq such as Gator-Aid, sanitary handi wipes, nuts, canned tuna, beef jerky, powdered drinks, etc; Texas member, Thomas Welch, is bird-dogging this effort and sending the packages. To date over $4,000.00 has been donated and by the end of the month that figure should be even higher as a special eBay auction is now in progress. Thank you tomthbomb. Those of you that do not have internet access and would like to contribute to this worthy cause may do so by sending your check or credit card numbers to the RKS office. Please specify amount and what for so I don't think it is dues payment. You are also encouraged to write a short letter to the soldiers which are included in the packages.
Those of you that do have internet access may read about our special Care Package effort at this link on www.KnifeTalkForums.com. That link http://www.knifetalkforums.com/showflat....1&fpart=all

I think it would be a great thing to include some Christmas cards in the boxes going to our Warriors next month. If you would like to send some cards please do not address them to a specific Warrior so they can be distributed amongst the squad.

Please send me a P.M. and I will give you my address for cards to go in the boxes. For our members outside of the U.S.A. I will send you a direct address for the Warriors.

If you can think of some gifts we can send specifically for Christmas I would appreciate the help. Sometimes I think I am running out of fresh ideas. Please, don't suggest fruit cake!

No request yet for my address to send Christmas cards for Sergeants Jennings and Abrams. Time is getting short.
