25 May 2007:
Dearest supporters, friends, and family, You are the reason we are here! We love you and we love our country. Thank you for your gracious support and giving hearts. Your continued support seems to come at times when we might be in the lowliest valley, or having our darkest day. Being away from home is hard for all of us, but getting a care package from you, makes our days here a bit brighter and we appreciate that greatly. As the guys here are approaching their 6th month gone from their homes, family, and friends, talk has turned to many of the things that they miss about home. The hot sauce that one Texas ranchers talks about missing seems to come to mind at the moment. I would encourage you as you look to put together a care package for a trooper out here on the front lines, what is it about your state that reminds you of home? Maybe its a local candy bar or snack that makes your town feel like home, maybe its a musician who came from your town, maybe its a movie that was filmed in your hometown. Whatever it is, I would encourage you to send something to remind these guys of home. As always thanks to those who send care packages. I try to make it a point to write everyone, if I miss you, I am sorry as times are pretty busy around here. We got a great amount of lights for the huts, so thanks for sending those. If you are looking hard for something to fill a box, don't worry to much. These guys are grateful for anything and thankful for everything. The usual assortment of candy, magazines, and tolietry items never grows old. God bless you all and thank you for serving in this capacity. Rich Wyatt
03 Apr 2007 Thank you all so much for sending so many wonderful packages packed with care and generousity! We have received so many boxes in the last couple of weeks, I have been able to hand them out to folks in other sections where we work at. The smiles go from ear to ear when they get a box filled with treats and supplies all to themselves. I have had a lot of guys asking for things that aren't so readily avaliable here in Afghanistan. Specifically mens magazines (hunting and fishing, cars, sports, news, fitness) have been asked about a lot, and healthy snacks like nuts and dried fruit. Trail mix is always enjoyed by these guys too. We are still in need of lights for the huts that we live in. The tap lights or small table lamps would be great. Some folks have asked about what plug in we have here at Bagram, it is 110v. Thanks again for all that you do. Receving care packages from great Americans back in the States has been a wonderful blessing during such difficult times that seperate us from our family and friends.
23 Mar 2007 Hi! Thanks for caring about our troops in harms way, it means a lot to us over here. I am currently stationed with an Army unit in Afghanistan, and I have noticed a couple of the younger guys with long faces come mail hand-out time. I know what it is like to not receive a package, and I know what these guys are going through. Basically I'm looking to get these guys anything that may brighten up their day. Tolietry items are always great (toothpaste, floss, toothbrush, soap, deodorant, etc...), they also have electrity in their huts, and each of them could use some sort of lighting there. Christmas lights or little clamping table lamps work well. In the huts, building and modification is encouraged to keep moral high, so if you would like to help out and send hand tools (hammer, tapemeasure, screwdrivers) these guys would love it! Magazines for reading in their down time and books are always welcome. Of course there is candy and snacks that make these guys happy. Thanks again for all that you do, and just remember, people like you make this hardship, this deployment, a little bit easier.

IMPORTANT! DO NOT PRINT THIS PAGE!!!
Why? Because this list changes all the time due to unit movements, soldier transfers, or even soldier casualties.
It is also illegal. ALL content on this site is copyright Any Soldier Inc.
DO NOT send any letter or package to a soldier's address unless you check this web site the same day you mail your packages.
Please do not burden the soldiers or the APO/FPO by sending things when the soldiers are gone. If a soldier is not listed here anymore then that soldier's address is expired. Check here often!
Note that some of the units do not have ranks shown on their addresses.
This is done at the unit's request, but ALL of our contacts ARE Servicemembers.
Be sure to change the "ATTN" line to "ATTN: Any Female Sailor
if your package is for a female!
DO NOT use this program if you expect or require a reply!
DO NOT expect, or require, a reply from a Sailor!
A supporter said it perfectly, "I mean, these guys and gals have other things on their minds, y’know? Like...oh, STAYING ALIVE?"
(NOTE *): Effective 1 May 2006 this web site added a major layer of security to our contacts' information. This change is necessary to protect our troops and ensure that Any Soldier will continue to operate.
The ONLY changes are that the addresses of our contacts are now hidden and the number of addresses you can get are limited. You may obtain addresses simply by clicking on the link provided and correctly filling out the form, the address will then be emailed to you immediately.
(NOTE **): The number shown is how many times a form was submitted requesting this address. This does NOT necessarily mean that this contact will be helped by that many folks. Rule of thumb is that anything 5 requests or less may in fact be no support at all. No way to tell exactly unless the contact lets you know in his/her update how much support they are getting.
(Note 1.): Note that postage to APO AE and FPO AE (E = Europe) is only to NY where the connection to the APO/FPO (APO = Army Post Office)(FPO = Fleet Post Office) is, or to San Francisco for APO AP and FPO AP (P = Pacific), so you don't pay postage all the way to Iraq/Afghanistan.
You might consider picking contacts closer to your mailing area to help cut the cost of mailing. If you live on the East Coast, pick "AE", West Coast, pick "AP", Midwest, well...uh, Thank You for your Support! ;)
New with us (December 2005) you might notice "APO AA" and "FPO AA". This is for units in the Caribbean/South America. Normally. However, due to the nature of some units they may be in Iraq but have an address showing "FPO AA". Mail addresses to "AA" goes out of Miami, Florida.
(Note 2.): Why are military addresses weird? There isn't a street address or city. What gives? Correct, just about everything about the military is weird to civilians. Military units are very mobile, they move around a lot, often they even become part of another unit. The APO (Army Post Office) and FPO (Fleet Post Office) assign APO and FPO numbers as needed, they are NOT static. An APO/FPO number may be for a large unit, or a location. An APO/FPO number for Baghdad today may be for Frankfurt tomorrow.
(Note 3.): The "Expect to not mail past" date is only an approximate and is one of the least reliable things on this web site. It is because of this that you must check often before you send anything to this unit. There are a few reasons this date is not reliable, to include: it IS the Military, we ARE dealing with the APO/FPO/DPO. The only thing that does not change in the military is that things will change. PLEASE NOTE that a Contact is dropped off our active list 30 days PRIOR to their date leaving to help avoid mail bouncing.
(Note 4.): (Removed for OPSEC reasons)
(Note 5.): The lines, "Contact with approx number of Soldiers:" and "Approx how may Female Soldiers:" have NOTHING to do with unit strength. They are approximately how many other Troops the Contacts believe they can get packages to. This helps you understand that you should not send 100 packages to someone who only deals with 10 Troops.
Don't forget that if your package is for a female Soldier, be sure to change "ATTN: Any Soldier®" to "ATTN: Any Female Soldier".
(
Note 6.): This is simply where the unit this contact is from. This is NOT a true picture of the folks in the unit as most all units are made up of folks from all over the United States.) A "Composite Unit" is one made up of other units and is usually temporary for a particular mission.
(
Note 7.): Updated APO/FPO/DPO mailing restrictions> courtesy of Oconus.com (gone now)
(Note: About Restriction "U2": "U2 - Limited to First Class Letters", Box "R" is for retired personnel that live overseas and are still authorized an APO/FPO box. Their address will be something like Box 3345R. Doubt you will see anything like that in Afghanistan or Iraq or ...)(Please Note: Sometime in August 2013, Oconus.com changed the code on their page and our form doesn't work with them anymore, so a link to their page is the best we can do, sorry.)
