Thanksgiving ideas for soldiers?

My husband is currently on his 2nd tour in Afghanistan. Today he called me and asked if I could send some thanksgiving decorations for the tent that he works in (he’s an aid station medic). I sent Halloween decorations, and I was planning on sending Christmas but I have no clue what to do about Thanksgiving. I went to Target, couldn’t find anything, same with Wal-mart. I never decorate for thanksgiving so I’m kinda clueless on what would be easy and not too expensive to send. My husband is the only married soldier out of the guys he works with so I can’t get help with the costs from the other wives in the unit. But what type of decorations would work for thanksgiving? It can’t be in the way or too big?

Are you in area of the U.S. where the color of foliage changes in the fall?!
Send some leaves – Oak, Maple, Acorns,etc…..
find a basket shaped like a Cornucopia, fill it with hard candy, tootsie roll,etc…
