(From his alternate):
Sorry I have not been in touch in so long, but we have been quite busy here and now we are in the stages of slowly leaving Iraq. We have two months left and soon a new company will be coming to replace us, and I hope to hand off the wonderful contributions and support from your organization to our new group of patriots.
Thanks for being patient with us, we really appreciate your help.
Indebted,

Yes we can we can use some t-shirts, i have a total of 117 soldier's now deployed in Iraq the UnderArmour T-Shirts would be a great help keeping the soldier cool on convoys. The loose fitting would be good for my female soldier the tight fitting ones for male would be good. Sock's is also good white PT socks ankle or calf. Not sure what about sock size but i think med.and lg size would be okay.
Socks - MED, LG
underArmour loose fit Female- MED, LG
underArmour tight / loose Male -LG, XL, XXL
If you could send some in these sizes that would be great hope this helps.
Can we request sport Bra's sm, med, lg and underwear boxers,breifs for the males sm,med,lg,xlg.
58 female
59 male
