Hello everyone,
I apologize for taking so long to reply. I recently got back from Walter Reed with my new prosthetic (right) eye it looks so amazing. I got to spend alot of time with LT forseth while i was up there. He's doing well... I guess they're done with all the major procedures on his arm so I know he's real happy about that. My leg is still healing but the wound is almost all the way closed already. Now they're starting my paperwork for my discharge so hopefully I will be out in time to start school in the fall. For now though they just have me on a permanent desk job.

I wanted to say to everyone THANK YOU for all the support, unfortunatly there were so many letters and packages I just cant respond to them all, But I loved each and everyone. The support is amazing. When I was down home for leave my town put together a clebration for me! I was picked up in a vintage WWII jeep with a police escort. The mayor came out and gave me an award aswell as the local Veterans of Foreign Wars post and fire department. I gave a speech and everything. It feels good to know that when you come home the people of the nation appreciate my services. It was on the news and in the papers. They declared 19 FEB 05 " SGT Jose D. Lopez DAY".

Once again thank you for all the support, and please continue to support my friends and all the other soldiers, sailors, and marines over seas.    Sincearly,   SGT Lopez

This is Sgt. Lopez. First I would like to say thank you for the suppot and I wanted to Write an update just to let everyone know how i'm doing.
I'm doing really well these days. I've been in good spirits since I was wounded. It was rather unfortunate that I lost my right eye when we were attacked but in this case the good outweighs the bad... so i'm just happy to be alive. I also suffered a minor wound to my right thigh, which will heal normally on its own in a few weeks. Once that happens my body will be back to 100%, and I'll be able to get back to going to the gym every day. Thats something I'm really excited for. I've been driving myself around and doing all my own errands since I've been back here at Ft. Bragg. I don't let the fact that I'm short an eye stop me from too much. Doctors say my wounds are healing very nicely and in about 6 weeks they'll fit me for a prosthetic eye. So for now I'm just watching lots of "Friends" which I became addicted to when I was in the hospital in germany...lol. Drawing alot, playing video games, watching movies and relaxing in general.

Once again I'd like to thank you for your support and thank you for your prayers because I believe they saved me. The only thing I ask now is that you pray for my friends who are still overseas. Thank you, Sgt. Lopez

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.)
