You are to be commended sir. Thanks for the thought.. Try getting in touch with a local military installation. Sometimes, thru military channels, they can load your contribution on a military aircraft and send them right to the soldiers with no real cost to you. If you can send it thru military channels, it may be excluded from some of the hoops you have to jump through (customs and inspections etc..) sending something like that commercially.
Best of luck, and thanks again.. KattSkatt
