Two weeks ago, we sent out packages to three new contacts - Jonah Carpenter, Chris Briley and Matt Anderson.



Hello,

My team of four Marines are supporting the Afghan National Army and will be in an extremely isolated location for the next few months. There is no Exchange, laundry facilities, we do have field showers. Entertainment items are always appreciated, as well as any thing else you send. We appreciate all the support, and little things go long way, even among the local village children--you would be amazed at how grateful they are for the smallest piece of candy.
Again, thank you so much for all the support.
Lt Chris Briley

Good Afternoon,
I am representing a Marine team from Camp Pendleton, CA. This team is a small detachment called a Border Transition Team; we train Iraqi Border Police to protect their border similar to our own Border Police. We live in the true desert away from most other units, we are outside the wire 100% of the time, embedded with an Iraqi Battalion. We have very little infrastructure, there is NOT a laundry service or a full chow hall. We have a small kitchenette which includes electric stove top, fridge and big freezer. Thank you for your support.
Matt Anderson
