Back in Iraq

Many of you may remember our very own Crystal Henderson Hannan who came in from Iraq during our convention in Kentucky in 2004. She is once again deployed in Iraq. She has 50 Marines in her unit. She would love to get boxes to distribute to her Marines.

This is a great time to get your holdiay packages and stockings out to our Marines.
