A variety of snacks and personal hygiene products. A photo and a letter. The thought is the most important part.

His favorite snacks, the local paper - or even perhaps just his favorite sections if he has a preference. Depending on where he is or the restrictions from his command, playing cards. Microwave popcorn if they have a microwave, single serving soups and meals. Holiday stuff to celebrate the holidays while you are apart. Pictures of you, the kids if you have them, your home, the town around you. Most of all, lots of love... that's what really counts!

Anything editable be sure to send enough he can share with his friends. Candy is good, peppermints, butterscotch etc. as there many in a bag. Maybe some pictures and a favorite book. Your bra or pair of sexy panties to hang over his head, really, I am serious. Put a little of his/your favorite perfume on them. That all I can think of.

ok i was in the navy . so this is a good one for me to answer. pics from home are good . he can get candy stuff like that at the ships store . smoked salmon is a good item . if he likes that. a good blanket from home . you sleep with the blanket a few night so youre smell gets into it. he will notice trust me when you smell nothing but ship all day you notice . any kind of food that will keep that you know he likes always goes over good. new dvds are good to .

Oreos. His favorite junk food. His favorite brand of socks. A replacement toothbrush of exactly the kind he always uses. And several issues of the local and neighborhood newspapers. If he can have videos, record an entire night of ordinary TV, including local news and commercials - when I was overseas, we LOVED these videos, they really make us feel in touch.

Along with the personal things, practical things like baby whipes (so they can take "showers") toiletries, food items like jerky and what not. For christmas I'm sending my husband candles that smell like a christmas tree. He's getting lights. Festive things so he doesn't feel like he's missing the holiday completely.

Things to remind him of the love he has back home. A picture of yourself and if you have them, your children. A little taste of home, such as homemade cookies and homemade candies....more socks and underwear, music, games, playing cards.
