A buddy of mine always had to use Crown Royal for mouth wash because I put mouthwash on the form and it was not his fault I put a half gallon of Crown in the mail every month instead of Scope. How the game is played. He was 1st sergant so he may have had a little more leeway, but he said his CO was always asking him abiut his fresh breath so they know what is going on.

I already bought a bunch of those listerine strips that I found on sale for the packages.

I have a DOD secret clearance and a position of trust certification from the government. Can't risk fudging on the custom form. Theres no appeal, theres no process for mediation. Your clearance is pulled subjectively on purpose to keep us inline. Don't do a damn thing to risk it is the message, no matter how small.

But on the other hand my wife doesn't have a clearance.

Happy Thanksgiving to all the troops that are serving and sacrificing so that we can be safe in our homes with football, turkey and sharing familiy time.

part of an email i got from my son this morning. he got two packages from cp members(see below):

"Hey pops

Sorry I haven't emailed you in awhile, but I have been flying a lot this
month. My thanksgiving was good, I spent it flying over Afghanistan. I got
one package last week from your buddies, and another today from xxxx
xxxx. xxxx sent me a string of Christmas lights made out of shot gun
shells. I will be hanging them outside my room. I also started reading the
cardinals book and it is really good. I will give it to you when I get
home, I am sure you will like it. Tell all those guys thanks for me. It
was really cool of them to do that.... "

again, to all involved in this...thank you from the whole seclark clan.
May God Bless you all, this holiday season.

Very nice, sec, thanks for sharing a piece of that with us. God bless and happy holidays to your boy and all the rest of our military, especially those serving overseas.

Crazy Coffey is over in the sandbox now. I sent him 2 packages last week. One package had a Santa hat and a football and a Cardinals book (donated) in the other with the normal goodies.

Awesome, BRC.

If you could, send me a PM detailing your shipping arrangements - the Mrs. and I have a package we're planning to send in the next few days as well.

Great work here, Doug; we have a similar project we do at school and at our church for soldiers from SD. It's a very worthy cause. Keep up the good work, man. Happy holidays too.

It's the Planeteers filling the boxes, I just facilitate.

PSA:
If the Christmas spirit moves ya, a reminder.....all and I mean 100% of all contributions go to the goodies for the troops. I'm paying all the shipping costs and paypal fees. So this Christmas think about someone overseas helping defend the homeland, they are away from their family, missing their kids etc. They could use a little reminder that their fellow citizens back home remember their sacrifice and appreciate them this Christmas.
