• MILITARY COUPON PROGRAM - Ongoing - Time for a change. Emanuel can be commended for the interest and concerted effort that was put in to the collection and mailing of thousands of manufacturer discount coupons to the Army base at Grafenwoehr, Germany. Since the program beginning in September, letters have been sent to the Grafenwoehr base describing who we are, asking how we can best help the military families. Sadly, to this date we have had no responses from Germany. Therefore, the Military Coupon committee at Emanuel, has taken the suggestion of Dick Devine (who has been absorbing the cost of shipping the packages) to adopt another military base on the other side of the world, Japan. The base chosen is a U.S. Marine Corp. Base in southern Japan near Hiroshima. It appears to be in the small city of Iwakuni. We are all aware of the tragic events that have fallen upon the country of Japan, and if we can give the U.S. Military families at the Marine Corp base any assistance we know it will be greatly appreciated. A map of Japan with the location of the Marine Corp base at Iwakuni is located in the Narthex on the large bulletin board, From the Overseas Coupon Program address it appears their coupon center is very well organized and should be more responsive to our efforts.
