Gift boxes for the armed forces

OK, this thing is more of a spur of thought that come to my head. I know soldiers in Iraq and Afghan are always looking for useful things and stuff to do in free time so would love to make them all gift boxes if I ever had a shitload of money spare or as xmas streets.

This is what it would comprise of (initial idea excluding weight limits and limitations)
I’ve never sent stuff overseas before so would have to look up for them but this is what would be nice to include. They do more than enough for us so it would be nice to repay them

1 Large shoe box for storage —

– Magazine (various from asda, cars, computers, puzzles, chat mags, etc) – to keep them up to date
– Small stat (for writing letters to friends family)
– Small games stuff to keep occupied (i.e dice, cards, rubiks cubs, soduku books)
– B5 notepad (for writing letters)
– Small money bag (i.e £5 note and £5 in change in each one, a little spending money)
– Toiletries (loo roll, tampons, pantyliners, toothpaste, tooth brush, soap, toot picks, condom, sure deod)
– Small disposable camera (so they can record memories etc)
– Suntan lotion, lip balm, vaseline, etc
– Beefjerky sweets

Now I know a lot of this probably won’t be accepted but it’s just something quick to my head if I ever get say £3000-4000 spare as I’d love to make 30-40 boxes for them. Our soldiers really do more than enough and I’d love to help them out with their cause
