Do you know how much postage I would need to send a letter? Is it the same as a regular U.S. letter?

Posted: **Sat Mar 29, 2003 11:59 am**

No Garrett international mail for a card or regular mail is normaly 80c. Thats what I pay to send stuff back to SA. Have A look here it may help in calculating postage.

Thanks Chad! :-)

Letters from "home" and "care packages" are always appreciated! :-)

Posted: **Sat Mar 29, 2003 1:39 pm**

I just mailed a letter to Aaron at the post office.

If anyone wants to send a "care package" here are some suggestions:

Granola bars
Canned nuts (cashews are worth their weight in gold

)
Baby wipes
Chewing gum
Chap stick
Life savers/mints
Sun screen

Remember to send only non-perishable items. Small light items are easier to pack and carry for our servicemen! Lets show our support!
