Soldier Goes All Out for ’Operation Cookie’

CAMP SHELBY, Miss. -- New York Army National Guard Soldier Sgt. 1st Class Walter Meshenberg poses with some of the 3,600 boxes of cookies the Girl Scout Council of Suffolk County, N.Y. recently delivered to 27th Infantry Brigade Combat Team Soldiers, who are here preparing to deploy overseas. The cookies were delivered under �Operation: Cookie," which allows people to buy boxes of Girl Scout cookies to be donated to members of U.S. Armed Forces. Meshenberg is also here preparing to deploy with a brigade unit, and he organized the donation with his cousin Jonathan Chekin, who works for the Suffolk County Girl Scout Council.
