I WENT TO FORT TOTTEN TODAY, AND BEING THAT THE 4TH OF JULY IS AROUND THE CORNER, OUR NATION'S BIRTHDAY. I THOUGHT THE BEST GIFT I CAN GIVE WAS TO THE ONES THAT ARE GIVING US THEIR ALL.
I DID THE SAME THING I DID ON MEMORIAL'S DAY. GOTTEN LIKE 50 OR 60 BIG BOXES AND STOPPED AT A CVS AND RITE AID AND GOTTEN MAYBE 100S OF SMALL SHAMPOOS, DEODERANT, TOOTHPASTE AND BRUSHES. GOTTEN SOME SNACK BAGS, CANDY AND GUM. SOME PLAYBOYS FOR THE MALE SOLDIERS I MEAN LOOKING ALL THIS TIME AT UGLY BURKAS ATLEAST BIG BREAST MCGEE ON PAPER IS MORE OF AN IMPROVEMENT. AND I WILL GO BACK TO BUY SOME MORE AND BEFORE THE 4TH I AM GOING TO FORT TOTTEN AGAIN TO GIVE THE 2ND HALF TO THESE CARE PACKAGES. FORT TOTTEN IS THE ARMY BASE HERE IN QUEENS, NY WHERE OUR BRAVE MEN AND WOMEN HAVE GONE BACK AND FORTH TO EITHER IRAQ OR AFGANISTAN. MANY ON THEIR 2ND RETURN HOME. ONCE DROPPED THEY CAN SEND THE PACKAGES OVERSEAS. IT IS A VERY LITTLE THANK YOU COMPARED WHAT THESE MEN AND WOMEN ARE GOING THROUGH FOR US, WHILE SO MANY HERE AT HOME DO NOT REALLY TRUELY APPRICIATE WHAT THESE MEN AND WOMEN ARE GOING THROUGH TO PROTECT US.
