Merry Christmas Marines is back! Last Christmas we sent twelve tons of stockings and Christmas goodies to marines serving on the front lines in Iraq and we want to do it again this year. We are working with the Marine Corp League and Patty Lewis at Mom4rMarines, to fill over a thousand stockings to be delivered to Marines in Iraq this Christmas.

Over the next 18 hours of that dark night in the desert that convoy stopped at over two dozen remote outposts. Lt. Colonel Todd Desgrosseilliers, dressed in a Santa Claus Suit complete with grenade belt, hand delivered over a thousand Christmas stockings to his men spread across the Al Anbar Province. It ended with a sunrise Christmas Day prayer service at one of the last outposts.
