Good on you randell. I hope you and others follow through on it. My wife sent packages every couple of months for a couple of years. Her youngest brother was the first Australian soldier killed in Action in Afghanistan. She had been sending packages to him, but after his death, continued to send them to his unit.

I know they were appreciated, not just for what they contained, but also for the sign of support it gave the troops.

I spent 20 years in the Army myself, but Anzac Day means a lot more to us these days.
