totally off-topic... men who are married and have children of their own probably miss their family even more than the single guys. I like to target that married age group. A mom at home with children, with her husband deployed, has less time to make quilts and send packages than the older mother of a young man. I have two military sons (one is out now) and my husband was in the military. I am able to do much more for the sons than I was for DH when I had a houseful of children.
I would encourage you to be as "local" as possible. It's all appreciated!
