So...
A co-worker signed up for an 'Adopt-A-Soldier' program and took pictures of us here in the office to send him/her.
While, I think that program is a nice idea, I can't help but wonder what these soliders actually think of some of the stuff they get from back here in the states.
I know if i was out in the desert for the last five years, fearing daily attacks, and camel spiders, I wouldn't really be that thrilled to be hearing about some white collar peeps day to day goings on in an air conditioned office.
Maybe it's just me.

what a bizarre program. I mean do they give you updates and you get pics of your soldier and everything like in Save the Children?
Kinda.
It's more like a pen pal thing where people here in the States send them care packages.
