Thank you all so much for the outpouring of support we have received from you in the form of cards and Christmas gifts. Your response was more than I ever thought possible. And we are working on thank you cards and letters to let you know how much we appreciate all you are doing.

And thank YOU AnySoldier.com!!!

Thanks so much for everything you are doing! Here are some pictures that I thought might personalize our webpage!

First is a picture of one of our younger soldiers attempting to lighten the mood. Unfortunately, SPC Yuan frequently lightens the mood unintentionally as well!

Our youngest soldier goes on "Clean Control," on her way back to her trailer from the palace.

Thanks again,

Dana Vietti

Hello from Baghdad!

My name is Dana Vietti, and I am a soldier with the 888 Movement Control Team in Iraq. I'm hoping you can assist me Christmas gifts for our 6 youngest soldiers, some of whom are spending their first Christmas away from home.

Our youngest soldier just turned 20. You would love her if you knew her; she's a limitless ball of energy. Everyone in the compound knows who she is and smiles when they hear her name! Our next youngest soldier, who has only received 2 packages since we deployed (and those were from my family), has just written his college entrance exam in which he reflects on his transition from "just doing a job" to caring about both his unit and the Iraqi people he is supporting.

As far as living conditions go, we are fortunate and appreciative! We live in trailers and have water and 220 electricity most of the time, and we generally have three hot meals a day. But we do work out in the city, and life here can be stressful despite the living conditions. We consider ourselves very lucky, however, to be able to work with the Iraq people on a personal level. I can't even begin to tell you how incredibly proud I am of my soldiers, and the way they have grown through their service!

My request is for anything that would make it seem like Christmas: a table top artifical tree, Christmas candy, small games or toys, disposable cameras, small lotions or toiletries for two females, some inexpensive Christmas stockings that I can stuff (there are 10 of us here if you can send 10, but I can take care of the gifts for the older soldiers and officers), good books, letters of support.

I know that you must have many requests from people who are more in need than we are, and I will get my soldiers taken care of no matter what, so don't worry if you can't get to us! But if you have some gifts left over, I'd be grateful!

Thank you so much for your efforts to support our troops. We couldn't do it without you!

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 Soldier 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 Soldier!
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.)
