There is an issue that Lori and I feel strongly about - supporting our American Servicemen and Servicewomen! No matter how you feel politically, that makes no difference. Americans are serving their country around the world and they make us PROUD!

Unfortunately, the Department of Defense has canceled the "Any Service Member" program for safety reasons, but you can still help.
If you know any person who has a family member in Afghanistan or elsewhere, ask them for his or her name and Air/Army Post Office or Fleet Post Office (APO/FPO) address. Whether you know the person well or not, they will be so grateful.
My college girlfriends and I have a roommate (K.D.) whose husband (M.D.) served twice in Iraq. While he was deployed, we got together a couple of times and sent him care packages. We included snacks, magazines, and other box-size items. We got some chuckles putting the packages together - we wanted him to chuckle when he opened it too. :)
Step 1: Use the service member's full name.
Step 2: Include the unit and APO or FPO and nine digit zip code (i.e. 12345-6789).
Step 3: Include your return address.
Step 4: For packages, print on one side only.
My Step: Put in a thank you note.
Example address: SGT Jane Doe
CMR 1234
APO AA 12345-6789
