I know from personal experience that these pens and pencils go down well with the troops. Still got mine from 09 .

Now you know that we have troops in other parts of the world as well as Afghanistan, I only say this as I'll be in one of the other parts soon

Blessed are the pen turners.

Default Come on Aussie

Come on Aussies, please give to this worthy cause.

A big thank you to Don Nicholas, a member from over the pond in USA for donating 15 pen kits to the troops.

Well done Don it is much appreciated and I am sure the troops will love to get a pen which was donated from the US.

Please contact me if you can make a donation of a pen, pens, pencils or kits to make them with.

It is possible to have some sent to our MFO troops on OP MAZURKA?

They are but a small contingent in the bigger picture.
