True enough, I've gotten by this deployment just sending random cards and then writing a little note apologizing for the card having nothing to do with the event that I'm sending it for. My family thinks is kinda funny and understands that the PX doesn't always have what I need it to.
One thing that I haven't seen mentioned here are those little plastic water-tight containers for keeping your ID cards in. My CAC, Eagle Cash card, and calling cards all sit in one right now. That or one of those bloody armband ID holders.
