Since people keep wanting to know what I want in my care packages, I decided to make a list:

Mouthwash- don't know what the restrictions on liquids with travels applies to mail also, but if it's possible, it would be great. The stuff usually takes forever to get resupplied in our PXes apparently.

Razor Blades(& especially refills)- By the way, with all due respect, do you think you should "support the troops" with those cheap Bic razors you yourself don't use? We use Gillette Mach 3 and Schick Quattro razors like any other sensible guy would. Also, if you think nice razors are worth their weight in gold back home, it's like every day was the day before Christmas over here.

Nonperishable Food- Try peppered beef jerky, sugar, coffee creamer (as just about anyone that likes coffee has their own coffee maker around here) and, my personal favorite, microwavable popcorn.

NOTE: We are a combat unit, meaning we have few females in the Battalion, with only about 2 dozen in one company (which is not mine). While female soldiers deserve their necessities just as much as male soldiers(maybe even more so), it does not mean you should swamp my all-male company with feminine hygiene items. Save that for headquarters company. Thank you for your time.

If I think of anything else to send, I'll let y'all know.
