Due to current mail restrictions, security precautions, and transportation restraints, the U.S. Department of Defense cannot accept items mailed to "any service member." In an effort to keep our public and our troops connected, the military has established several alternate options for communicating with service members stationed abroad. The military asks that citizens not flood the military mail system with letters, cards and gifts. Though well intentioned, this mail can clog the system and cause unnecessary delays in military families contacting their loved ones. Please choose from the services below and send a message of support to our servicemen and women stationed abroad.
