Why if he was going to post an address, did he post just HIS and his buddy's? Why wouldn't he post the name/address of the base or whatever it is? So that all the men can get the supplies? I am not very familiar with military ways, but wouldn't that make more sense? I mean if you're gonna violate terms anyway?
I don't know that he's violating any terms exactly, other than MC's policy of not posting name and address. If you google :

"
you get all kinds of addresses and names. This one is a link to a newspaper I guess??? that you can submit names and addresses of deployed or deploying service members: Sentinelnow.com - The Upper Dauphin Sentinel Online


I certainly hope this isn't a case of someone asking for the kindness of strangers (getting free toiletries, etc) and then selling these things to fellow service members. Personally, I would seek out one of the many "to any service member" addresses to send goodies.
