It's just amazing how so many are helping out on this...
In addition to what you all have seen here on BN, I thought I'd post some email traffic from the past week. I think Crash might have to invite the base post office guys to the party....
Just awesome...and very humbling.
I can tell you this...they are going to have one heck of a fun party over there!!!
