My son is having his 7th birthday party and has choosen the camo/military theme. We were talking and thought it would be a neat idea to have the kids at the party draw a picture and write a little thank you note and send them to some American troops fighting in Iraq. I thought that was the sweetest thing for my son to think of and would like to do that. I just dont know anyone personally over sees.. I guess I am lucky in that case.. but I still support our troops. Does anyone know anyone over sees that you think would like a kid to send them a little thanks or know of where I can find addresses or whatever... Does doing this require extra postage? Do you have to send a letter through customs or anything to do this? Thanks!!

Here is a great website: http://anysoldier.com/
That is a very sweet idea, and I'm sure it will certainly make some military hero's day! God Bless!

APO and FPO addresses are technically still in the US, even if they're overseas, so you can use a flat rate box from the post office to send a box of letters. As for addresses, I'm going to suggest anysoldier.com. I'm sure they'd be thrilled to have letters and pictures of kids, any of them.

I have 9 soldiers at present I have adopted. If you would like to contact me I can give you a choice of soldiers. Otherwise go to soldiersangel.com I cannot give out soldiers addresses the letters would go through me. I even have pictures of some of my soldiers
