Brian,

As of right now, our platoon is doing pretty good with the samll stuff like weapons cleaning gear. If you could though, the cotton patches (forgot which company) are 10 times better than the issued things. Also getting those packages in the xxxx are essential (xxxx). As for mission essential I would suggest the following:

  • xxxx
  • xxxx
  • xxxx
  • xxxx
  • xxxx
  • xxxx

    -thats all I can think of this early in the morning.

    As for gucci gear I was thinking if you could get your hands on Ipods or any MP3 players it would be cool. Oh, and solar showers so platoons like us dont have to
    compete for shower times. Hope this is little more insight. Maybe your 10 steps ahead of me.

Thanks Brian for the hard work, you are the godfather right now.

Silent Souls,
xxxx

Whats going on Brian. Just got back from a xxxx day mission and just wanted to say that the bag you sent for patrolling worked awesome. Made the mission 10 times easier to accomplish. Also I saw a xxxx in a gear magazine: "Thexxxx . It does not have to be that exact bag, but, just to give you an idea of the style of bag. Thanks again Brian. I told Gunny about the website and the greeting.

Hey, BK,

Hello, from sunny Iraq. I got sporadic remore access to my aol account for now. .mil email is still in the works, will advise. We could really use some weapons cleaning gear if you have any. We got a conex box of xxxx turned over but they are a mess. Troops also running short on xxxx. I wrote to Militec, told them I had 170 Marines coming over with me. VP sent me an email- we got 200 4 oz bottles for the bubble. What a great company - maybe a relative of yours?! lol.

If you have any of the xxxx, it would be a great help. I feel bad asking but supplies here are odd. got a sh#t load of bottled water, decent amount of chow, no shitter paper or weapons cleaning gear. Can't wipe our butts or weapons........ Going to try to look for Sgt xxxx at xxxx, they are here at this base too. Hope to find him before they ship home. Started missions yesterday. Heading to xxxx tomorrow night .... we took fire on the flight in then got mortared a few hours later. Guess that was the welcoming commitee.

Will stay in touch.
Waiting for card reader to mail you some pics.

Take care. Out from sunny Iraq,

Your bud,

Brian,

Hey brother, I'm wired on coffee and had a couple of more ideas that came up. xxxx are almost a must for a sniper now a days in the city. The issued xxxx is good, but once you .......... Also, the xxxx are great. xxxx and xxxx like the one xxxx sells are good to go to.

I'm just throwing ideas your way.

Thanks.

I just got a new stock with xxxx. I'm waiting on a custom part so I can put it all together. I have a xxxx. I gave up my own optics because the xxxx I had was bad. So I lent mine to a guy with zero. A sponser you hooked me up with is getting me the part I need. Should be here soon. I hope. He's working hard to get me what I need.

I got xxxx long ones left. Just hit xxxx. If you know someone who can hook up a xxxxthat would be the business. I can't even find somebody that sells them.

Talk to ya later. I just got a bunch of good pics.

When service speeds up I'll send um out.

Mr. Sain:

My name is SSG xxxx I am with the xxxxINF. xxxx I have been given the honor of starting a new sniper section within my unit. The only problem I have run into is getting my chain of command to purchase items organic to a sniper section.

I found out about this site by word of mouth from a fellow sniper that said you guys might be able to help my cause. We are slotted to xxxx. I'm sure you know how I feel about the honor of starting this section from scratch, but I want all my guys to have the equipment and training they need to return in one piece from our deployment.

Anything you can do to help would be great. It is nice to find a sight for soldiers that make up only xxxx percent of the Army.

Thanks: SSG xxxx

Dear Brian,

My husband xxxxX is a sniper in the Marines.

We have corresponded previously with you and I believe Adopt a Sniper has given my husband's platoon quite a few items. They deployed to xxxx yesterday and my husband is without any type of sunglasses over in xxxx . He is in need of a pair of
Oakley sunglasses and I am wondering about the possibility of you organization supplying him with the Oakley's that he needs. I realize this is asking a lot, however we can no longer afford the items he needs, as we have spent everything on gear prior to his departure. Please let me know your situation and if this would be possible. Thank you for you time and consideration..

I have a sniper for each of my teams and will be xxxx. Please contact me with information regarding membership.
