I think its a great start too. I personally would second the gerber milk bags. Hell, I'm picking up some more this week...I can send you a few if you like. My brother was stationed at Vincenza a few years back, with the 173rd. Do you have an APO, or an Italian addy? Either way, PM me, let me know if you'd like a few. you can give em a run, see what you think .
