msepostdoc-list Gifts for US Sailors

[Donna Bystrom]

Everyone:
There is a box in the MSE reception area for holiday gifts for US 
Sailors that are stationed on the USS George Washington anchored in 
Japan.  These sailors will spend the holidays on this ship.  To show our 
appreciation we are collecting items to be shipped out to the USS George 
Washington.  Possible items would be as follows:

Toiletries:  shaving cream, cotton balls/q-tips, nail clippers or file, 
small containers of lotion, etc

Non-perishable sealed snacks:  granola bars, crackers/chips, hard candy, 
cocoa packets, etc

Other items:  writing paper, pens/pencils, paperback books, travel size 
games, playing cards, etc

Money for shipping costs would also be welcome or write a card of thanks.

This box and it's contents will be picked up on Monday, November 21st.

Thanks for your consideration.
Donna
