I need some help in determining the "needs/wants items" I could place in a care-package for my Marine across the pond. He's too proud to say he needs anything, so if and when you were over there, what did you want in a care package?? Thanks in advance for any input.

Thx acg8276, but I was looking for specific items that cannot be bought or easily obtained via AAFES or whatever other outlet they have over there. An example, when I was down range, we loved getting US bar soap (of all things), twizzlers, pringles, something OTHER than orange and lime drink mix. :)

Socks and socks and more sucks. If he does tobacco than that too. Also some beef jerkey and stuff like that. If he's running patrols like we did than he will want socks
