On September 29th, members of Oswego County ABATE traveled to Fort Drum to "link-up" with their adopted platoon. This platoon know as "The A Team" (a.k.a. War Pigs) consists of 80 soldiers of whom 67 will be deployed. They are a transportation platoon and will be stationed on the eastern side of Baghdad. Abate will be sponsoring this platoon while they are in Iraq. We are a drop of site that will take your donations like: toiletries, baby wipes, eye drops, batteries(all sizes), magazines, paper back books and much more. There is a complete list in the dealership of acceptable items. The items we can not take are: chocolate, glass containers, aerosal products and any item that melts. I know this time of the year things may be tight but remember these items sent WILL go to the hands of people that matter most to us. Our service men and women fighting for our rights and freedoms! Thank you for your participation with this cause. |
