Deployed Guys: Need Any ****?

[Boogie Woogie]

Merry Christmas and the I wish the best for you and... Thanks (to say the least)...

As well and what I did for my Marines while I was in Iraq was registered at anymarine.com.

There is also anysoldier.com and anysailor.com

You can go to anyone of those websites and get the deployed address of service members and send them care packages or their units.

I know you all are looking for calgun members, but if it falls short and you want provide support those are a couple other options.

Starbucks brand stainless steel / solid metal French press coffee maker + some coarse ground coffee was the most amazing thing EVER...

Made strong, palatable coffee - arguably the best coffee I ever had. Now, I use a jet boil with the French press attachment... Left my French press overseas with another guy (ref: bribe)

If you know any guys down range that are coffee finatics, the Starbucks stainless steel press was damn near indestructible. Granted, they'll probably only be able to boil water on post at FOB / COB / firm base.

Jet boil also makes an amazing French press attachment to their stove.

I got my buddies address today. If anyone wants his address let me know.

Shipping out the 2 packages today was my first time also. Easiest way I can figure go to the post office and get their large flat rate boxes, the advantage of these is that it doesn't matter how much it weighs, it ships for about $15 bucks. Once you have it packed go to USPS.com and register for an account if you don't have one. The advantage of the USPS account is that when shipping it will require custom's forms and declarations. Having the USPS account it will fill all that info in and print it out for you and all you have to do it just take it to the post office afterwards. No need to fill out any forms in triplicate or however many copies they require.

just wanted to say thank you for the packages. they could not have come at a better time. I appreciate everything and ill make sure to share them with some of my Marines. Dont have much time we are in the middle of work so have to go but just wanted to stop by and say thank you.

Manas is near and dear to my heart. I just pity the AF personnel stationed there. A bar with a two drink max. The horror. .

Way to go Calguns. Way to support our troops. Good luck and God bless!

2nd brigade 10th mtn just deployed, since it's recent, I'll wait awhile and contact some buddies to see what they need in the future. If this thread is still going, I'll update with an address. Good thinking!

I am willing to send some stuff I just have a few questions,
1- how big is a unit? like How many guys so I can send a package for the group?
2- what is restricted?
3- who needs stuff? (What address)

Thanks

You can read more at USPS.com, but Porn and Bacon (pork) are two of the things that are banned. WTF, right?

They make you send to a specific person now; no more "any soldier", etc.
