21 Dec 2012:
Greetings all! There hasn’t been much change since the last email I had sent out. Our living conditions are the same, and we seem to be improving the amenities as we progress through the deployment. My team is now on the latter part of our deployment and we have begun our countdown until we redeploy back home. Things are going fairly well, we have continued to work with the ANA to improve their independence as a military force in Afghanistan. They have moved to a new area of operations and we are starting another training/advising mission with another kandak (company) to hopefully assist them on getting on their feet and as independent as they need to be. The moral here is well, like I stated above we are living in hardened structures with heating and cooling, so we are fairly comfortable most of the time. We go out on more mounted patrols now than foot patrols. There is a room with internet capability and a small room for a chow hall. The food isn’t the best, but it is better than eating an MRE. Mail has been sporadic lately with weather starting to get worse with rain and overcast skies. Everyone is waiting for a big mail drop, once that happens they will all feel that Christmas spirit. Being away on Christmas is one of the hardest things we have to go through, in my opinion. To keep the moral up, we are planning on decorating one of our trucks like Santa’s sleigh, if we are able to get this accomplished I will post a picture to share. I would like to thank everyone that has supported us throughout our deployment, I have been able to keep in touch with a few people and try my hardest to keep sending out emails and letters to everyone that has blessed us with their love. We cannot thank you all enough. We love you all!

Good morning, i apologize for the lack of a timely response. I tried to log back on a few weeks ago and send an update, my navigation skills on the website were lacking. this is probably the best way to stay in touch, i am able to get on this email almost daily. Things are going fairly well here, we are on a firm base with a number of Afghanistan national army soldiers and more Marines that have shown up. We are living pretty comfortably, hard shelters and what not, we are staying warm and dry. We have been very fortunate this year with all the support we have been receiving. One person was someone who gave a bunch of support last year and it was exciting to receive a letter from them again. Our future at the FOB is up in the air right now, there is talk that we will be transitioning to a smaller patrol base sometime late this year. If that is the case we will probably loose a lot of amenities that we have here. I am not sure on specifics, but i can keep everyone updated as i gather more information. As it stands right now, we are for the most part doing very well. It is getting hard for a lot of guys with the holidays coming up being away from their families. i know i don't speak for myself when i say it, but everyone enjoys when mail shows up and there is a letter or a package waiting for them, it is definitely a moral booster. I don't have specific lists of needs or wants right now, i will gather information throughout my team and the other Marines and see what is needed, really right now anything that adds the feel of home, is greatly appreciated. Thank you all for the love and support, Sgt. Chris Limberg and Kandak Advisor Team 1-4/215

We are heading to a FOB that is in the process of getting DEMILLED and turned over to the Afgahnistan National Army, our job is to advise them on basic infantry tactics and get the ready to go on their own, i am not sure what exactly we are falling in on. We should have solid structures to live in and services available to do laundry and shower. We have your typical rations of UGREs which is very similar to MREs. Electricity should be readily available. All in all, the living should be similar to that of one of the bigger bases just with a smaller unit. At some point in the deployment we will move to a smaller patrol base with little options like what we intially are falling in on. We appreciate whatever support we get, anything to get the feeling of being close to home.

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 Marine
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 Marine!
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.)
