Thanks!

My Husband is at an APO...maybe we are one step closer to solving this mystery. Husband swears to God and all the angels that he was only given a 5 digit.
We shall soon see.

i've lived with both FPO and APO addresses. all addresses, including ones in america have the XXXXX-XXXX zip codes, as do APO and FPO addresses. Most people don't know them or just don't use them and the mail gets to them just fine, for both stateside and APO/FPO addresses.

Haha I dropped 100 dollars on stuff for my husband and my BIL. I am positively JONESING to send it out. Care Packages are great fun.

good lord i have trouble putting ONE box together!! (it probably has something to do with the fact that i sleep 5 hours a night and spend my entire day at school and don't have time to find stuff for a package). my imagination and creativity are EXTREMELY limited!!

i'll have to admit, i went all out for his christmas package...it was my first care package. but still...2 boxes in 2 weeks? kudos!! (care to give a girl a hint?)

zip codes here have nine digits, too. it's not hugely vital, it just helps get your mail to where it's going faster, so most people don't mess with it.

i just sent my hubby's with only the five-digit, and it got there okay.
