Craig Cusick's wife, Sgt. Daneila Bock, is an Air Force medic stationed at FOB Finley-Sheilds in the Nangarhar province of Afghanistan.

Until she gets home, Craig decided to send just a little taste of what she'll be coming back to in the form of her (formerly) super secret Oatmeal Dark-Chocolate Chip Cookies.
