We have Staff Sgt Scott May EMXS/MXMTC over in Iraq. Him and his F-16 crew are in need of some homeland support. They need bunch of goods that are hard to come by over there.
Few things they suggested:
Any snack food individually wrapped
Import magazine
Disposible camera
Gatorade in powder form
Any form of entertainment
I have got a load of stuff ready to go, but the more, the better. If anyone wants to contribute to the cause, we can make alot of troops happy over there. We will be sending the box out Feb. 4th. I will give you our UPS account number to get the items here.

Here are a few emails from him:
"Squatty,
we had to evacuate the hangar earlier,we had what we call a UXO (unexploded ordinance) right outside our hangar, now theres 2 questions i had, 1. how the hell it got there?, and 2. if we had to move and it couldnt,then how did it get moved there in the first place? we had to call EOD to come and blow it up, another repricussion blast i didnt want to feel, starting to give me a headache.i cant go one day without something around here blowing up. scott
Squatty,
yeah,ill keep my head up,but other times gotta keep it down. small arms fire and mortar shells coming in all the time.i hate the repricussion from the blast,keeps knocking me off my feet. the convoys are constantly being hit over here.im sitting here looking at one of our planes in the shelter thats fully armed with bombs.pretty cool.ill see if i can get some pictures,shouldnt be a problem,one of my guys here have a digital camera to download pictures,my camera sucks,so we'll use his.the funnest thing to do here is climb on top of the hardened aircraft shelter and sit there and watch the apache's do their rounds. they fly around on scouting missions looking for any terrorist that will try to shoot down our planes while they are at low altitude when landing.we'll i gotta go. ill keep you posted. scott
Squatty,
we been having mortar attacks from a mile and half out of the base. the iraqi's use ice blocks on the bottom of the mortars,so when it melts,the mortar goes off and the iraqi is nowhere to be found,sneaky aint they? we had a car bomb at the front gate of the base that killed some people and the repricussion from the blast could be felt all over the base. EOD finds these mortars and piles them up and detonates them,they did that the otherday and blew me off a set of steps from the blast.that hurt.other than that,things are going ok. our planes dropped a bomb last night on a target of a bunch of iraqi terrorists. thats what im here to do ,kill people. i just get tired of wearing my level 4 body armor and kevlar helmet.but i have to wear it. im hoping to be out of here in may so we can all go home to our families."
This is from Scott:
"Sweet, thank them for their support. We appreciate it. Im out,email you later cullen,im going to get some sleep, I need it bad. Thanks dude. scott"
