As much as I disagree with war and US foreign policy, I still feel the need to support troops.

Anyone interested, see - http://www.anysoldier.com

I have used a similar venue to send humanitarian aid to Afghanistan. I sent it to a US soldier, who then distributed warm clothing, blankets, shoes, and other items through a local mission.

Most of the 'aid' here seems to be care packages to troops.
