More good news from New Jersey!

Marcelle Shriver of Stratford has finally found somone to ship her packages. You’re asking yourself how that’s good news, aren’t you? Let me tell you. Mrs. Shriver’s son is in the Army, stationed in Iraq. Last year she found out that Silly String can help detect trip wire booby traps. Because Silly String is in a can it is considered a hazardous material so most carriers won’t ship it. She was told by one base they didn’t have room to store it and didn’t have a flight going out there in the near future. Another base flat out refused to take the shipment of boxes consisting of 80,000 individually addressed cans. She started collecting the cans last year when her son asked her to send some out, and has been storing them while trying to find a way to get them shipped. Capacity LLC, a NJ shipping company, became aware of the situation and got in contact to see if he could be of assistance. The packages will be inspected by the company and then delivered to the United States Postal Service to be transported to Iraq with letters and other packages. Way to go! I admire your determination and persistence toward helping our soldiers.
