WI Homie Mark sends a link to a wonderful story. Waukesha - Mackenzie Frost's dad loved Girl Scout cookies, especially peanut butter sandwiches. When U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Christopher Frost was deployed to Iraq, he received Girl Scout cookies in the mail and even sent a photo of himself holding up a cookie. So when 8-year-old Mackenzie sold Girl Scout cookies this year for the first time as a Brownie, she asked her customers if they would be willing to donate boxes of cookies to send to troops in Iraq. The second-grader wrote a note for each package introducing herself, explaining which Brownie troop she belonged to and how she came up with the idea. She also told the U.S. service members in Iraq that the cookies were a great way to remember her dad. Christopher Frost was killed in a helicopter crash in Iraq in March 2008 when Mackenzie was 5.
