Although an actual platoon was not adopted despite the valiant efforts of CuseTroop to hook up with one, his further efforts resulted in him contacting the chaplain of an infantry battalion deployed to Afghanistan.  Said chaplain was only too grateful to accept anything we had to offer.  When CuseTroop pressed the matter further, the chaplain delineated specific items that the soldiers would appreciate receiving, as outlined in another post on the Adopt-A-Platoon thread.  I then sent off a couple packages of stuff earlier this  that we had collected at some past season tailgates, as will CuseTroop.

One of the items the chaplain said the soldiers enjoyed were non-government issue shorts and tees.  So with $300+ dollars collected during the tailgates just sitting in my desk drawer, Troop and I decided that what they would [I][B]really[/B][/I] appreciate would be an SU-themed tee shirt.  (Who in their right mind wouldn't?????)  By chance, I was able to find this beauty on clearance at the SU Bookstore website:
