I too haven't heard from him in a long time - I put out the word via some others I know stationed nearby but haven't received any word back regarding our guy.... I'll definately let you know if I do and would appreciate you doing the same...

Happy Holidays and here's to a great '08!!!!

^^^ Wes, ^^^

I sent name and APO addy to him - have not received any confirmation from him nor any DC# info.... I hope he comes through as the soldier and his Unit in Iraq are 'assigned' to him and I hope they have something nice to start the New Year from this guy....

I forgot the tracking number as well. I sent out a flat rate priority box and followed your instructions to a T. All i have is my copy of the customs paper ( I think there were a total of 5 carbon copies!!)

Life is good.

thanks for the opportunity to serve.

God Bless,

doc--if he does not come through, send me the addy (but please include the country)...since i have to mail from japan, it really does not matter that it is an APO.

that may have been the problem for our last guy. i mailed to america, so it had to get bounced back to europe...

^ Umm Brian, please let me forward these for you...It is easier and probably cheaper in the long run.

I am getting a package ready for eodsteve in Balad Iraq but I am always willing to help a brother out sending to another service memeber...come Brian you know me better, lol.
