Many forces have already been in the region for several weeks and while the war seems to be going quite well for the allies, troops are likely to remain in the desert for some time.
But it's important to keep in touch – and we want to do all we can to help.
So send your messages to the troops to us, and we'll ensure they're passed on to the Gulf.
An RAF spokesman welcomed The Evening Star's move and said: "Certainly from the morale side of things this is extremely important."
An MOD spokesman said: "This is a very nice gesture to send sent messages to the forces. They always like to receive letters and of course it probably does help with morale.
"The forces are focused on a difficult task out there and knowing that they have got the support of friend and loved ones back home must be a comfort to them."
