Correction to Adam's mailing address

The following is a correction to Adam's mailing address:

ADAM PAYNE
HHT 3-4 CAV, UNIT #70105
APO AE 09351

I think this is the correct way to send him letters and packages. He didn't give his unit # or the correct zip code in his blog. Also, the post office will not accept packages or letters without return name and addresses...... I learned a number of things today trying to send a package out to the boy.....

We got a paper that said that our name and address on packages was a security risk. It said to do a:

3-4 CAV Rear Detachment
Building 650
SChofield Barracks Hawaii, 96857

It said that if the post office gave you a hard time, to tell them it's an OPSEC issue, and the commander's orders, but maybe that only has effect there in Hawaii.

Now I wonder if he's going to get the 3 letters from each of the girls that I sent this week. I don't remember what address I used anymore, but I suspect I used the one he posted....

He'll get them in like 8 months or something silly like that. I'll have to get them to write him again.

I have seen people use that return address also.. but they where in Hawaii.. the only problem with return address' is that someone could get ahold of yours and send you some mail pretending to be me... but it doesn't happen often. I burn the address' when they get here... so it should be allright.

Yeah, plus past performance says that we have nothing to worry about anyway. If we get a letter from you, we'll be suspicious of it anyway. (And if that's not the pot calling the kettle black, I don't know what is...)
