Hello Everyone,
PLEASE read the note below.This is from a good pal of mine and I would really appreciate it if you would help me with his request. It will only take a few minutes and could make a huge difference.

Dear Fiends:
I have a son stationed in Iraq. After serving 4 years with the 82nd Airborne and serving a tour in Afghanistan he received Presidential orders and was recalled to acttive duty nearly a year ago. From a parental perspective and from someone who served 25 years this is a tough pill to swallow. Never the less,he swore to support and defend. He is doing honrably. Iam proud of him.

He called me a couple of days ago.During the conversation I ask him what he would like for Christmas.Initally he could not provide me with one request,I was not surprised by this because he is a good and unselfish kid. Reluctantly , he came up with toiletries ( shaving cream, baby wipes, etc.)and some magazines. I tossed and turned and asked how I could bring about as much happiness and Christmas cheer I could to him. I came up with the most ingenious ( yeah right ) idea possible ------- CHRISTMAS CARDS from strangers.

So, I am turing to you Chippers for a bit of CHEER
Please send a card. I love the though of flooding his mail box.

Happy holidays to you and yours
