A friend of mine is in the Oklahoma National Guard. His unit was recently deployed to Afghanistan on a one year tour to support Operation Phoenix.

I received e-mail from him for the first time since he arrived in country. Seems that several items are in extremely short supply there, and shaving supplies (believe it or not) are near the top of the list. Their operating base doesn't even have a PX, and the closest PX frequently runs out of things.

I am rounding up items to send over in a care package. If you guys and gals have any soaps, creams, regular razors, disposable razors, DE handles and/or blades, brushes, mugs, etc. that you'd like to donate, please PM me for my address. I'm waiting to hear back if straight razors are cool or not. E-mail is a little hard to come by right now, but I'll post more when I get it.

Thanks
