Especially the authors among us may be be interested in Operation E-Book Drop as well, which gives our troops something to read on those Kindles:

I'm proud to say that my little music primer is in the program, and I've received some nice words of thanks from service members who've downloaded it.

BTW, while I was personally never deployed, much of my Navy unit was, and I was rather surprised to find out how many basic things they didn't have easy access to and that they requested in care packages, like hygiene items . And we were a support unit 'in the rear with the gear.' I can only imagine what it's like for front-line war fighters.
