This mountain of a dude is Shawn Taylor. He served in the Marines and is a friend of my son and daughter in law. "Curly" as we call him, called the Ellis and Bradley Show on Friday to talk about some buddies of his at an outpost in Afghanistan.

Here's the names of his two Marine buddies and the items that you could send to make life easier for them. We also got a call from a friend at the USPS who said if you'll stop by your post office you can get a flat rate box to ship your love, make sure you tell them it's for these heroes in Afghanistan. They should also give you a customs slip to fill out, too.

Thank you for taking the time to hear Shawn's story. Do what you can to help these guys who are putting their lives on the line for us.
