Anything microwavable or ready to eat. Espescially things you can eat right out of the package. Cookies, candy, jerky, tuna, anything really that doesn't require much prep and will stay along time. One of my husband favorites..the betty crocker dessert in a bowl. It's like a small cake already in a bowl just add water and microwave.

Search under 'ratpack'.  Mabe desert storm ratpack or something.  As far as I remember their food packages are called ratpacks.

I do believe you mean WMD's. Moslems don't eat bacon...you will never find a BLT in Iraq.\n\nlmfao

I'm in the Navy. I've had friends send me cookies, and cakes, and banana bread, ET from NY to the North Arabian Sea. They almost always arrived fresh. You just send it regular mail, in a box postage determined by weight.

Here is a website that contains addresses of soldiers in Iraq and Afganistan. Not all soldiers have internet access. Many of them are out in the middle of no-where. But they deeply appreciate receiving packages. And with Christmas approaching what better way to support our troops than by sending them a box filled with homemade cookies, candy, and small gifts? Here is the website where you can contact our troops.\n\nhttp://anysoldier.com/WhereToSend/

spaghetti noodles and sauce.... \npeanut butter\nramen noodles\ndried beans\nbisquick baking mix\nground beef\nstuff that would last a while, is cheap, and would be easy enough to whip up something out of if I got hungry.  I've been in that situation before....  Ate a lot of macaroni

Well if its anything like Army basic training you won't get a lot of time to eat so don't be picky. Take what you're given, scarf it down and try not to get noticed. Make sure you drink a lot of water, you won't be allowed pop, you may or may not get juice and milk (in our basic we had to drink at least one glass of water before getting juice or milk). Generally chow halls serve some kind of meat with a starch and a vegetable, its all normal American food, maybe not the tastiest or best cooking, but you're not going to get weird food you've never seen before most likely. For breakfast its bacon and scrambled eggs, maybe sausage, hashbrowns, maybe pancakes. The first few weeks of basic I got pretty much about 4 minutes from the time I sat in my seat to the time the drill sergeants were yelling at me to throw my stuff away and get out of the chow hall. Learn to eat quickly! A good trick I saw a lot of guys do was to grab a few slices of bread and cram those down, at least you feel full for a little while. Also, if you ever get  night when the chow hall puts on a big spread like steak and lobster etc (it happens sometimes) and the drill sergeants let you all eat your fill be very suspicious! Chances are you are going to go straight from the chow hall to physical training and work out until you all puke. Good luck!

Magazines, batteries, powered drink mixes, cards, phone cards, tolietries (soaps, sunscreen, bug spray, razors, shaving cream), food (no chocolate) and little things that they can have fun with when they get a free second to relax (DVD's, mini-board games,etc).\n\nIt's great that you want to support the troops!

If you want easy, then take MRE ( Meal Ready to Eat ) available at military stores or camping stores. These are packed in waterproof plastic and are everything you need.

The Postal Service usually posts an up-to-date list in the lobby of most Post Offices.\n\nOne of my sons is currently serving there.  His Commander has ordered that the rank of the soldier should not be listed on all letters and packages, just use the soldier’s name.\n\nOne good place to visit is the first site below for additional links on other packages and info.  The second site was set up for Troops in Iraq, but still has useful information.  While in Iraq during his last tour of Duty, my son said that sunscreen and “macho” lip balm were two items usually in request.  Beanie Babies (even “used ones,” to give to children) were other hot items.
