Adam's Address

I didn't include Adam's address, because the blog is a public website that anybody can read and have access to.  So, if you are interested in sending something please email me or the fam and they can send it to you

Info on My Favorite Soldier

I hope this finds everyone doing well. I've had some questions about what to send Adam, and truth be told I really don't know what he needs right now. AAFES the "Army Airforce Exchange Service", your all purpose store for the guys, has made it easy for family and friends to help by setting up Gift Cards in different amounts that you can purchase online, and have sent to him in Iraq. The website is: www.aafes.com. Once you get there, you go to the right hand side of the page, and click on "Gifts from the Homefront" for the gift cards, and "Help Our Troops Call Home" for the phone cards. << MORE >>
