AL ships boxes

LISBON FALLS — Nelson-Conley Post 66, American Legion, recently shipped eight large boxes of Christmas gifts to two platoons in Afghanistan, four to each platoon. A total of 30 individual gift bags per platoon had a value of more than $900, all but $50 coming from individual monetary donations from post members.

Each platoon had a Lisbon connection: a Marine platoon in which Max Wrede, son of post member Russ Wrede, is serving; and a 101st Airborne platoon in which Matthew Trimble, grandson of Ralph Garnet, is serving.

This is the eighth year Post 66 has done the project.
