It took 22 days for that package to arrive. He was "stoked". He was out on assignment for 2 weeks with little to no sleep (2hrs each day) and the package arrived the day after he got back to his hut. Perfect timing!
Thank you all for your encouragement on the stuff that I did send, you all were 100% on spot.
So I sent the other 2 packages out this week. It was all the stuff I didn't ship with the first 2 packages. I didn't want to over whelm him with 4 packages at once.
One thing that perplexed me the most out of all of this, and it's just my guesstimation, is if you live no where around a military base no one gives military discounts, even if it's plain to see the items you are purchasing are for "care packages". I did purchase the over the counter meds and stuff at a national chain drug store. So does your national chain drug stores or just a national chain store of any sort that you live by offer a military discount if you live close or on base? Just curious. If I remember right, back in the day some did close to base.
