Just read the last few postings. You may never get a picture. I often send packages through some of the support groups and one of the instructions is that you may not ever hear back from them. They are busy, usually in life threatening situations, and with limited down time. You of course have a connection to them, whereas my involvement was as a stranger, and my preference is that if they only have time for one letter I would rather it be to their family member. Another thing I have learned is a lot of those in Afghanistan are in remote places and some have little or no px and may not have much resources for taking a picture. If your (ex) dil sent a disposable camera with a padded, self addressed, stamped envelope you might get pic. I know their letters are postage free but a camera in an envelope might be a package and don't know for sure if those would be postage free. Suggest it to her maybe you'd get some pic.
