DVD Library for Deployed Soldiers  |
|
I Sergeant in the Iowa National Guard and am deployed to Iraq. I have volunteered to be the Moral, Welfare, & Recreation NCO for our company and now it seems the battalion. I am trying to get a DVD library going here for the soldiers to have something to watch when they have down time to get their minds off their jobs for a while. I was wondering if anyone would be able to help out with getting it going.

1. Mommamea (712) | 4 years ago | What do you need help with. I am the wife of a retired Marine. I am living in Virginia and would be glad to help any way I can. I am sure several others would be also. I have several people on my friends list that are Military Wives and some of there spouses are also deployed to Irag. I would be glad to put the word out for any help you may need. You may send me a personal message if you would like. God Bless the work you are doing and your friends as well.

| christiankapler (23) | 4 years ago | Well people can help by telling others about it and then sending either new or used DVDs. The idea is to have movies for the soldiers to watch on their down time. They check out the movie watch it and then bring it back for the next soldier to watch. Movies can be ones that people don't watch anymore or ones that they feel we would enjoy watching. We have been gone for over a year now so we have missed out on a lot of the new movies. People can send the movies to:
SGT Kapler, Christian B co. 1-133 IN Unit # 60000 APO AE 09333-1000

3. Idlewild (4728) | 4 years ago | I just noticed your discussion, it showed up as one of the 'similar discussions' at the bottom of a discussion I just posted.
The discussion I put up lists a number of Web sites where people can discover how to support the troops. They range from books and CDs to snacks, letters, etc.
If you're looking for DVDs you might want to check out one of them, booksforsoldiers.com, where service members can request general or specific items. It seems very well organized with a lot of people responding to help get troops the items they want or need. It may help you get more DVDs for your troops.
Best of luck, and stay safe...

5. imadriscoll (1373) | 4 years ago | Do you have any particular DVD's that you want? Like do you have a list of suggestions? I'm sure that chic flicks are on the top of the list!! How about The Lake House or Just Like Heaven? Seriously though maybe you could post a couple of titles that would help people out and then if you receive them post that too so you won't get too many repeats! Just a thought!
