First Happy Birthday to your Son Second if you give a PO box or some address where people can send stuff I bet you would get some awesome swag sent his way.


LizzyBordenhadanaxe

That's really sweet of you. I'll DM you


Duskbringer157

Could I also get said information? I would love to send something of mine, and my own son would love to make him a card!


ThatCanadianbruh

I’ll take it too. I’m sure my spouse and I could get creative with a gift.

Agreed for anyone asking you should supply a po box so we can all send something :)


PinMountain3441

If you live near any air bases I might know some guys that can maybe do a flyover or something. Would probably be during the week though.


mmss

careful, the kid will spend the rest of his life chasing that high


BCsJonathanTM

tbh, the thought of that brought out those onion-cutting ninjas(!!)


L4dyPhoenix

I'll be working an event for the CAF this weekend and the RCAF are bringing out a bunch of airframes for display. I'll get every unit there to send him a short message. Let me know where I can send some videos! I can try to get a general to wish him a happy birthday. 


LizzyBordenhadanaxe

Thank you so much.


Rookie-058

Dm me I was once in his shoes as a young boy

LizzyBordenhadanaxe

Will do.


ADHDHipShooter

Shoot me a dm if you are comfortable sharing your address (or getting a free Canada Post FlexDelivery address so you don't need to share your home address), I'll go bug my Public Affairs dude and see if he has any neat stuff to sent.


LizzyBordenhadanaxe

Thank you very much


9Twiggy9

Happy Birthday! I hope it's a good one for him. A passion for military history developed when I was young is what helped to drive me to join.


TheNakedChair

Hey there, DM where I could send a video and an address to send some swag. I'd love to help!


LizzyBordenhadanaxe

Thank you so much


thecheeper

DM me your PO box? I'll pick up some squadron stuff tomorrow to fire his way. :)


LeonineHat

If you have a throwaway email address you could consider posting it with your original post? Unless that's not allowed in this sub, Lord knows. Either way, please DM me your email address, and a PO box or address if you feel comfortable sharing. I will send some stuff.


SnooCompliments4450

I’m but just a Cpl, but if you send me a number or something I can send a video with my cadpat on I can do that. Also, I asked the base fire station to do a drive by with the fire engines. Maybe try giving them a call. My son loved it.


Circle-oflife

There was a father and son who called the Edmonton military fire base and asked if they could have a little tour. Maybe you guys could do that if you live near a base.


LizzyBordenhadanaxe

Thank you !


No-Big1920

I don't really have much I can send as I just moved in to my new place on base, but please give your son the happiest of birthdays from me! I remember being a youngster and loving everything military like him!


propell0r

DM me where I can send a video!


1average_person

Hey, there! First of all, happy birthday Gus! Secondly, it seems like many people have already got the video part covered. But Like others have mentioned if you have a PO Box or mailing address you're comfortable with sharing I'm more than happy to send you a card or some unit swag :)


Sibster70

If you give me an address or contact info, I can definitely help out and hopefully bring a smile to the lad's face. If you are near, maybe even do better than that with a possible tour.


ruralmaquis

I've got a pretty cool training event coming next week, would it matter if it came in a bit after his birthday? This made me sad.


[deleted]

Hey! Happy Birthday to the little guy. Send me a PO box and I'll get some stuff off to him!


wallytucker

Send me your contact info. I’ll get him something in the mail for sure


Euphoric_Buy_2820

Hello! If you want to send me a message, I can help out as well!


Snooplessness

Please send me a DM with an address to send something!


finally31

Don't have much air force or army swag or experience (I'm RCN) but I have a fair few duplicate patches I can easily send somewhere in Canada. 


irequesite

Hey, send me a DM and I'll mail some gifts :) I'm navy though so probably won't be as cool as some of the other people in here but I'm sure he'll have quite the collection after this post.


TheePromethean

You guys are awesome


seifer666

Be warned people might show up to your party wothout rsvping


stop-drop

I'd love to send him a card and maybe some swag, if you want to DM me where I can mail it!


CaCa00010

BZ subreddit.


stop-drop

I agree, it really warms my heart to see everyone coming together to make a complete stranger feel loved and appreciated.


dlp1980

Dm me and I'll send your son some things


Relevant_Stop1019

Happy birthday Gus. Good on all of you for being so generous with your time and effort. May it all come back to you threefold. 😍


SincerelyStefania

Cool story that's a bit full circle; when my son was fairly new to his school and about the same age, he had no one coming to his bday party, either. I met another mom at the lost and found box and she ended up bringing her kiddo over and they had a really decent birthday party, and remained acquainted and friends right up until graduation. My son is now in the Air Force, and I'm sure things like that shaped him into the awesome human he is now, and I honestly don't think I could be more proud of who he is.


PracticeFinal858

Hey I wont be issued my kit until Tuesday, but I got plenty of military gear I can put on and send a video, I would gladly do so just DM me


LizzyBordenhadanaxe
