What items do soldiers want most?
To be sure TFT offered items on every soldier’s “Most Wanted” list, we relied on research and interviews with many people who are or have been in the service. Deborah Crane, the founder of Treats for Troops, has a son in the Air Force who is stationed overseas, another son who was in the Navy, and was married to a man in the Army, so she has a lot of personal experience, both in knowing what kinds of things the troops want and need, and understanding just how important mail call is. People talk about the packages and mail they received for years after they are safely back home.
