SSG Mitchel J. Grant 135/0 - 8 requests. original post 8 Jan. Coffee, sugar, snacks, hygiene, entertainment.

John M. Case needs personal hygiene items for males. He has 4 males.

Boy, was I shocked when I saw he has 48 requests!

Just looking over this thread- Slattery and C Tate have both gone to inactive contacts.

Fleming had 3 now has 7

Relyea had 3, no change.:(

F Jones had 6 now has 10 (supports 100/20)

D Griffin had 15 now has 18

M Grant had 8 now has 9 (supports 135!)

J Robbins, had 12 now has 15 (Supports 50/50)

V Ramos had 17 now has 20  (supports 50/10)

H Gutierrez had 3 now has 5.

Ouch - that stings to see that many lacking supporters!  How I wish we could continue with our 20 or so packages each month that we were able to do while Mr. Gran was working.  The only way that we could pick up CPT Robbins was that two of our contacts updated saying that they were not in need of anything at this time.  That is so selfless of them to do that when we know that they could always use something from home, but most of them realize the state of the economy here at home.  At least we have found a local couple for a source of sports magazines who are happy to donate to our packages.

Anyone know if M Grant got any of the basketballs and nets he requested?
