Prevent Blisters and Friction Burns

BlisterShield™ creates an almost frictionless surface, reducing heat
build-up and blister formation. Additionally, the powder does not absorb
moisture, rather repels it, keeping the skin relatively dry; similar to clothing
made of "high-tech" synthetic fibers that wick water away from your skin,
rather than absorbing moisture like cotton.

Advice on Sending to the Troops not using a specific name:

Cards sent to generic servicemen addresses WILL NOT BE DELIVERED, as a

post-911 security thing. Instead, donations to service organizations are appreciated.

Here is the statement by Walter Reed, available at:

http://www.wramc.amedd.army.mil/Lists/WRNews/DispForm.aspx?Id=25&

Holiday Cards to Wounded and Recovering Soldiers Walter Reed Army Medical Center officials want to remind those individuals who want to show their appreciation through mail to include packages, letters, and holiday cards addressed to 'Any Wounded Soldier'

or 'A Recovering American Soldier' that Walter Reed cannot accept these packages in support of the decision by then Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Transportation Policy in 2001. This decision was made to ensure the safety and well being of patients and staff at medical centers throughout the Department of Defense.

In addition, the U.S. Postal Service is no longer accepting "Any Service Member" or "A Recovering American Soldier" letters or packages. Mail to "Any Service Member" that is deposited into a collection box will not be delivered.

Instead of sending an "Any Wounded Soldier" letter or package to Walter Reed, please consider making a donation to one of the more than 300 nonprofit organizations dedicated to helping our troops and their families listed on the "America Supports You" website, www.americasupportsyou.mil

Other organizations that offer means of showing your support for our troops or assist wounded service members and their families include:

http://www.usocares.org/

http://www4.army.mil/ocpa/tooursoldiers/

http://www.redcross.org

For individuals without computer access, your local military installation, the local National Guard or military reserve unit in your area may offer the best alternative to show your support to our returning troops and their families. Walter Reed Army Medical Center will continue to receive process and deliver all mail that is addressed to a specific individual.

As Walter Reed continues to enhance the medical care and processes for our returning service members, it must also must keep our patients and staff members safe while following Department of Defense policy. The outpouring of encouragement from the general public, corporate America and civic groups throughout the past year has been incredible. Our Warriors in Transition are amazed at the thanks and support they receive from their countrymen.
