A SNCO Requests Our Help

[jinelson]

We have a request from the Sergeant Major of recently deployed 1st Bn 4th Marines for a couple of items for his Marines. He is requesting care packages with two items that they cant get in Iraq. One is dip Copenhagen, Skoal or the other brands. The in country PX's have it but the young Marines say that its dry and has the taste of the chemicals that are required for export there. They say that it tastes like formaldhyde lol as though they have tasted that before. The other item is AA batteries for their IPODs etc they are in very short supply in country. I know his Marines will be gratefull for anything received. If anyone can and would like to send a care package with these two items they can be sent to;

Sgt. Maj. Carlos Perez
1st Bn. 4th Mar.
Unit 40245
FPO AP 96426-0245

If you keep your eyes open, dip is usually on sale somewhere in convenience stores. If you buy a complete sleeve you can save a good bit.
