Troy,

I know any package sent now won’t make it in time for New Years even but I believe in spreading the cheer out over a longer period.

If they or any other unit you know of needs some support, please send em their addresses.

thanks.

I am sure there are many, in fact I know there are. I don’t know of any others personally. I would suggest checking out booksforsoldiers.com or soldiersangels.com if you are wanting to help. They are great sites who are dedicated to the task of supporting the troops. As of now, I think these ETTs are probably going to be pretty well taken care of.

If the ETT you mentioned is taken care of, I’d be happy to send my package to another one if you can get me an address.

There must be a bunch of guys in the same situation.

I’d like to help out.

Hi Troy,

Thanks for posting this team at Books for Soldiers. As you know first-hand, there is nothing we like better than to send BFS love to the ETTs!

And if I may hijack your comments section for a moment to speak to your readers….

For anyone who’s new to sending packages to the troops or who would like another way to support more troops in Afghanistan and other places around the globe, Books for Soldiers welcomes your participation. We’re always looking for motivated volunteers, and we have an active bulletin board system where you can post your questions on shipping, etc. and get fast answers from the moderator staff.

And of course, if Books For Soldiers is not the right “fit” for what you’d like to do, we’re happy to steer you to other troop support organizations that might work better for you. The main thing is to provide support, no matter how you do it!
