I think it's perfect.
I don't see why they wouldn't like it.
Would remind them of home, maybe.
I asked my son in law (the Marine) and he says he likes it and the people in the desert are very appreciative of anything they get.
I say send it. If it goes to a guy and he doesn't like it, maybe he would trade with a female soldier or even bring it home for his mom/sister/wife.
