Hello James,

I will call and see if the Marine Liaison office there has a new address for him.  It is Pacific time here, so I'm not sure if I will get through today.  I am sorry to hear that the package was returned, but I am glad to know that you are still thinking of him...

Thank you very much,

Kaylynn

Kaylynn,

Thank you,  and no hurry.  It is probably better that he gets the box later than earlier because the buzz may have diminished a bit from a month ago.  I had water pistols and nerf slingshots in the package,  among other things.

Best Wishes,

JLM

Hi, everyone -- thought you'd like to know that Lt Ronald Briley updated today (8/29/08).  He says that

"Cpl Laman is doing well. A huge THANKS for all you've done to facilitate his speedy recovery. None of us could do it alone. He needs support now more than ever and you guys took the reins so he didn't have to travel down that road alone. What can I say except I'm humbled by the countless number of things you do to show we are appreciated."

Thanks Marilyn!!!...

Great news from Lt. Briley!  Will the real Carol O. please stand up, please stand up...!  (OK, my attempt at Eminem's Slim Shady)  Seriously, what a wonderful person you are to write Lt.  Briley so consistently.  Proof positive that you can really make a difference in those soldier's lives.

James, sorry, I completely forgot about the address update.  When I called them, I had to talk to three people.  None of them would say that they knew his name.  Very different from last time.  They wouldn't even say if he was there!  The final person I talked to said to send his mail to:

Attn: Cpl. Adam Laman
Marine Liaison (NNMC)
8901 Wisconsin Ave.
Bethesda, Maryland  20889

That is the exact address that I had before.  Is this the one you used, James?   Lt. Briley does say that he needs our support more than ever!  I'm going to read back in this thread and see what address she said to use...

Kaylynn

Kaylyyn,

Thanks for the address.  I have a good memory,  it's just that it is short.

The address I used was;  Walter Reed Hospital

                                     6900 Georgia Ave.

                                     Washington,  D.C.

So....which address do we send Adam's mail to???

Ash, you can use the one that I posted last.  The one to the Marine Liaison's Office...
Thanks for caring,
Kaylynn

Hello everybody. With the help of our old friend George, I was able to obtain a current address for CPL Laman:

Attn: CPL Adam Laman
Malogne House
6900 Georgia Ave NW Bld 20
Washington, DC 20307

The link below is a pretty amazing story about CPL Laman. It is a little long but well worth the read!

Hello Bonnie.....

Wow.......talk about a coincidence.........I was going through my paperwork and thought "it's been awhile since I sent Adam a card" and wondered if it was still the same address.....so, THANKS so much for the update.     Hope things are good for you and please give ATL-Geoge my best.........

Love peace and blessings.........Anne Marie

Marilyn--I sent George your regards.  

I sent Cpl Laman a pkg with a card and several (comedy) DVDs almost a month ago, using the Marine Liason address given here previously. I didn't get the package back, so I can only suppose he got it.

Dear Junkies -- 1Lt Briley posted 10/23/08.  Dear God -- his Commander, LtCol Edwards, is at Bethesda now and in need of our support. 

There's a link in his post with more information.

Love and healing prayers,

Marilyn

Marilyn,

Thank you for letting us know what has happened... I really am having a hard time with words right now...  This is almost unbelievable.

We really need to come together and support Lt. Briley"s Commander.  Lt. Col. Edwards and his family need our love, support and prayers.  May God Bless us all...
