Operation Nipples - Update

[Miss Chybil]

Hi everybody!

I just got an email from my son in Afghanistan. The baby bottles you sent are beginning to pour in! Thank you so much! I'm starting this new thread so he can thank you himself. I'm sure he'll post something here soon.

Here's the original thread, in case you missed it:

No need to send more bottles, right now. We'll let you know, if they need more.

Thank you all, very much!

5. Maybe now we should send baby bottles to the whining, cry-baby Republicans? n/t

6. This is great news!

I sent my packages to him last Friday so I doubt they are there yet.
Once again, DU comes through. I love this place.

And as I said in a little letter I tucked into one of the packages, I am terribly proud of your son for being such a kind, generous person. :)

7. Is there a way that a permanent site for sending these bottles

to needy countries - maybe through the UN? If there is a shortage today there will be a shortage a year from now. I love to go rummaging in the summer and one of the things that is always there are baby bottles.
