As most of you know my cousin is in Iraq.  His unit has been hit hard 
lately 16 or more fatalities in the past month. I've been wanting to 
send something but been having a tough time figuring out what.

After posting here I received several tips for from our Iraq 
/Afghanistan war vets  (thank you gentlemen, for your service and your 
input) as to what to do.  I decided on sending a case or two of Girl 
Scout cookies to my cousin.  Enough that he could share with his 
buddies.   I told his Dad about it and he agreed it would be a good 
idea.  Many of the troops have access to most things they would want but 
I figured that Girls Scout cookies represent home.  You can't buy them 
anytime or anywhere and they're wholesome all American right up there 
with Apple Pie and the Fourth of July. 

Trevor' Dad called today saying he talked to Trevor this morning and in 
their normal conversation he asked if there was anything Trevor needed 
or wanted.  Trevor said "Anything but Girl Scout Cookies! Somebody sent 
us 1,000 cases of Girl Scout Cookies. We have more cookies than we know 
what to do with".  According to Trevor's Dad there are about 300 people 
in Trev's unit. That is 3 1/3 cases per guy.  Trevor had no idea I was 
planning on sending him GS Cookies.

So I'm back to the drawing board.  Any ideas?
