Coin Giveaway - Iraqi U.S. camp, WINNER !!!!!!!

PhillyJoe

Here's the short story. My daughter has a soldier friend stationed in Iraq. He gave her his address. It's something like:

Pfc. Smith
Camp _________
319th Engineers, Plt 2
Iraq

I actually don't remember any of the particulars and there is additional info in the address which is not pertinent for the giveaway. The Camp, however, is named after a board member's CU handle.

What is the name of the Camp?

Please enter only once. If Ray is still stateside, he may have an advantage; so be it. First correct guess wins. You may edit your answer but the edited time becomes your entry.

Winner will get their choice of a nice Kennedy, Ike, or commemorative proof from my modest collection.

I'll post the actual address tomorrow if someone would like to send a holiday card or letter to a soldier.

That was over and done with before I ever read about it. My giveaway was much slower and less efficient.

To follow up, here's is the soldier's address. My daughter said he is an internet friend, not a personal one. Since he is serving our country he is one of my favorite friends.

SPC Adam Schropp
459th Eng. Co., 2nd Plt
Camp Anaconda, Iraq
APO AE 09391

Yo Adrian! I thought the camp's name was just too ironic not to post.

This soldier is just one of thousands that might appreciate a card or letter this time of year.

Happy Veteran's Day to all that served. I used to tease my father (Army 1941-1945, D-Day, Battle of the Bulge, 3 Purple Hearts) that if it weren't for the success of the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War we'd all be speaking English!
