from a Brother in Iraq
 
Hey all. This is a message from Marvin (Kappa Psi) who is currently stationed in Iraq. Please share with others.



Greetings

This is Marvin Morgan and I have finally reach my duty station in Iraq. I left
Kuwait about 5 days ago. My camp site is called Taji. it is an old airforce
base. The camp is under lots of construction and it looks like a junk yard.

My new mailing address is:

SPC Morgan, Marvin
1452nd Transportation Company (HET)
APO - AE 09378-1785

This address is consider to be US mail. So you don't have to worry about
international fees. Regular postage stamps are ok.

If you want to send care packages just for me only.

Needed items:

Baby powder, baby wipes, cotton balls, Q-tips (alot of it because i use it to
clean my weapon, too), toothpaste, pens and paper, sunblock, lotion, insect
replent, shampoo, soap, foot powder, AA batteries and D batteries.

Food products must be sealed and enough to last for only a week. cookies, cakes
or candy are ok unless you can seal it tight. remember it takes up to 2.5 weeks
for me to recieve mail at this location.

You can also send Magazines or books, I have a personal cd player so sending CDs
are ok.

If you send care packages for my whole platoon there is about 70 people along
with me. Including about 17 females.

Thank you all for your support. Thank you for praying for me. i will be home
soon.

I forwarded your post to the Vice President of Service at my chapter. Perhaps they can be of assistance to you.

Will I be able to send this without using my real name???

I checked on line for care packages-WHAT A RIP OFF! I sure hope there are a lot of people who will do this.
