My wife's cousin is currently serving in Afghanistan with ETT Team Khaos, 27th BCT, NYARNG, Task Force Phoenix VII. We've of course been sending him and his buds regular care packages with various snack foods and personal care items, as well as school supplies and clothing for the Afghani kids.
My wife got the idea of contacting several companies to see if they'd be willing to send anything, and since we know that Slim Jims are a big favorite over there, one of the companies she called was ConAgra. Well, they really stepped up to the plate, offering to send a case of jumbo Slim Jims, and then ended up sending 6 cases. They were the exception, unfortunately, and most companies (who shall remain nameless) declined to help.
So, I thought you all might enjoy this photo of John and some of his fellow soldiers, I believe taken at their base at Bagram Airfield, taking a break from fighting for our freedom to enjoy their Slim Jims.
