To be honest, your family member is probably in the safest area in the whole country, especially if he is in the Air Force. It's called the "Chair Force" for a reason. I bet he wasn't issued a weapon either. That's because he really doesn't need one to accomplish his assigned mission. It's not like he'd be wearing it when he's working at a computer either. It'd just be another heavy ass piece of gear to lug around and keep track of. If everybody at home would feel better by him having a vest, then by all means.
I think you'd be better off spending that money on cards and letters and international phone cards. Just my humble opinion.
