Letters and Care Package Type Thingees


In case you have the desire to send items that don't contain poison or Anthrax, this is my Snail Mail Address.

SGT Kami Erickson
Task Force Med Falcon 6B
Camp Bondsteel, Kosovo
APO AE 09340

It is an APO address, so it SHOULD cost the same as if you were sending mail within the continental united states. It does require a customs form if you are actually sending something other then a letter.

I only give this out, because it isn't that difficult to find it on the web. Most specifically, it is listed here, sortof. But truthfully, you can't just come up and find me using this address. There are no building numbers so I think I'm safe.

If you want to be nice and send care packages for all soldiers within my Unit and not just me (because I have become rather spoiled) you can send it to my section by replacing my name with Preventive Medicine. I think they would appreciate the good will shown by my readers if you feel the need.

We also go out on MEDCAPS from time to time, which is where we go out into the community and provide medical support to the local people who may need it. In these circumstances, we can give things to the people of Kosovo as well.

But from what I hear, they have the best dressed children in any orphanage anywhere, however.

Updated Note: Somebody asked me what I want them to send me and I stood back thinking about this. See, I have this problem, and everybody in my family who has tried to shop for me during Christmas can vouch for it. I am an impossible person to shop for because if I need/want something, I usually go out and buy it on my own. So, I never know WHAT i want material wise.

One thing that never fails is hand written letters, about stuff going on back in the states or what not. Just a personalized little note or whatever. Things like that always go over well with me. And if you send me a hand-written letter, I promise I'll return it. (unless of course, I get swamped with letters)

Somebody else asked me if I had an Amazon wishlist up or not. I admit I have the same problem, and with Amazon I'm largely surfing it and picking up things now and then on it. So for kicks and giggles, I made a wishlist.

Its largely in the works, as I'm not expecting a bunch of strangers to buy me a $90 boxed set of the original Twilight Zone :)
