Tips for Mailing Our Military

eMail Our Military is military owned and operated so we understand how important support is to our troops. Here are a few tips we've come up with to make corresponding with the service members you support a little easier.

FOR THOSE MAILING OUR MILITARY:

1. Introduce yourself
2. Include information about you like: age, state, hobbies and interests
3. Consider including a photo of yourself and/or family (In good taste)
4. Provide your contact information if you would like replies
5. Keep your correspondence upbeat
6. Let them know you would love to hear from them
7. Ask about your service member’s hobbies, interests, favorites, family, etc.
8. Include a self-addressed stamped envelope
9. Send one card or letter every week
10. Don’t send anything sexually explicit*

We recommend that you do NOT wait for a reply before sending your next letter. Postal deliveries do not happen daily, they are usually weekly, bi-weekly or even monthly. U.S. Mail, at times, takes an average 2 -3 weeks to arrive at its destination.

To ensure that we can keep in touch with these service members at all times, enclose a note or a 3 x 5 index card inside any care packages you may send with the following information: "Please send all address changes and requests to eMail Our Military, 8004 NW 154 Street, Suite 344, Miami Lakes, FL. 33016

*As per the FAQs & Guidelines listed in the member section of our website. Failure to comply with the Terms & Conditions, Code of Ethics or FAQ Guidelines on our site may result in suspension of membership or immediate removal from eMail Our Military.
