Soooo what to do about this?

Question

So my baby is over in Iraq. He asked me to send a care-package. He said that he wanted a wallet-size photo of me and that I could come up with the rest. I haven't a clue as to what he needs over there or that he misses because he won't tell me. Any men or women out to sea, what would you want most from your lover?

Answer 1

Snacks are always good... homemade cookies... things he is not getting there.  I also loved it when I got Beef Jerky... that was a special treat.  If he is a ground-pounder like I was, it's always nice to get socks... stupid as it sounds.  But the best things to get are the snacks...

Pass it on to him, thank you for serving!

Answer 2

Anything you know he likes, sweets, snacks (should be non-perishable though), hygiene articles (shaving cream n whatnot), andy thing that you know makes him feel good. The best thing would always be a personal note for him.

Oh and be prepared for more jokes, those who deploy and actually set foot on the ground can be a little tough...bur your boyfriend is just as important to the mission as every other service member.

Answer 3

A rag with perfume on it.. wtf..

Answer 4

I was goig to answer but all my stuff is for ground pounders in the combat area and it wouldn't work for someone sitting off the coast in a ship!

Answer 5

Stick to necessities like deodorant, razors, soap. And things he could snack on like candy and chips and such. DO NOT SEND CHOCOLATE!!!

Other than that use your head to what you know he would want, considering you are the one who knows him best and knows what he needs and wants.

Good Luck
