Here is a place that I used when I was deployed. The soilders sign up them selves, and they have to put in the dates they will be there so you know that they will get the stuff you send.

I sent the Box today

 

i just picked up some more items today. each time i go to the store i grab 1 or 2 things. it makes it easier for me cause my pockets are not too deep right now....

 

i shiped 10lb 7oz for $19

 

that doesent seem to be that bad....

 

I guess it goes to New Yolk and the USA pays the rest

 

I don't know how I've missed this thread to this point. I'm in Iraq right now.
If you want to send packages, the cheapest way my wife has found to send me stuff is to pick up those flat rate boxes from the post office. You can stuff them with as much as you can, and the price is like 8 bucks. Not bad since you don't have to come up with a box and tape and all that.
I don't need anything. I stay on base and eat pretty well. I will include my address and pass on stuff to the forward operating bases where the guys don't have much. if you want.
I am looking foreward to the T-Day dinner Thrusday. It's always the best meal of the year.

The only thing I can't get here are Diesel Power magazines. If someone wants to send me their old ones, I'd greatly appreaciate it

Oh and you all rock!

 

Great news!!! My cousin is coming home!!! Apparently, he got a ton of stuff to share with everyone and he was very greatful. Thanks to all of you who sent packages to him! (He has been a little difficult to get in touch with, so I'm not sure exactly who sent him packages.)

If any of you were planning on sending packages his way, please take a look at the rest of this thread and send it along to one of the other deserving members.
