Fast Troop Care Packges
The fastest ways to send care packages to service members down range ...
| Paper Letter | Find a service member APO FPO or DPO address and mail them a paper letter. Letters arrive much faster than packages because of their size and First Class mail category. Although technically not a "care package" - the only way to know what effect a paper letter from someone back home has on someone in the service - is to be on the receiving end (brings tears to their eyes). Just talk about home a little in the letter - tell them that you miss them - that's all it takes. |

| Amazon | Amazon Lists. Buy something at Amazon and send it their way. Again, all you need is an accurate APO FPO or DPO address. If you're looking for ideas on things to send - here's a Military Care Package List - or create your own list for others to use. If you use the prepared list, keep in mind that whoever you send it to will probably hand out THE items they don't need to others in their unit. In other words, you can just scroll to the bottom of the list, click "Add All Items to Cart" - and ship the whole list down-range. |

| Gift Baskets Dujour | Here's an easy one: Pick a prepared basket - "Snack" Care Package, "Treats For Troopers" Snack Package - "A Cut Above Board" - "A World of Thanks" Gift Basket. Buy it. Send it to an APO FPO or DPO address. |
