Send a Postcard to the troops, for free!

Oh, and these are NOT e-Post Cards, but the ones you can hold in your hand!

Just so you know, most of those postcards are never read, most of the care packages never opened. They're dumped in mass piles in sheds, where soldiers are allowed to rifle through them if they want. I got some cool stuff over my two years in Iraq, because I actually bothered to rummage through the piles, but the vast majority of it went into the burn pile and subsequently up in smoke into the hazy Iraq air.

Sorry to hear this. I have sent dozens of these cards.

I'm not trying to be a cynic. I should have clarified this issue. My suggestion is that rather than sending care packages and letters to random (anonymous) soldiers, go to your local church, American Legion, or VFW and find out who from your area is currently deployed. Then develop a relationship with those specific service members. That way you know where your tokens of regard are going, and you can have more certainty that they will be received and appreciated by an actual person. That way you will know what they actually want and need, instead of sending them stuff that they might be able to buy in the PX.

Believe me, your kindness will be cherished, and you might make a friendship that lasts a lifetime.

Aw, that's too bad. I had a feeling it worked like that, but then again I thought I'd win the lottery last week. Oh well, it made me feel good 🙂.
