I also heard about making some type of item that soldiers could use around their necks to keep them cool. I realize I am getting off topic - but at this point, I just want to let the soldiers know that we are thankful.
There is a group who makes what they call Camo Quilts that they make and send directly to the guys and gals in combat areas. They will send you all the stuff to make the quilt, only asking for postage. You can check them out at www.camoquiltproject.blogspot.com
