WRITE TO OUR TROOPS - USMC HANGOUT'S DATABASE OF NAMES AND ADDRESSES:
We now have a database of names and addresses so you can write to our troops. You will need to be an active registered member who has signed up to be a supporter in order to access the database (this is done for security reasons).
If you need help or have questions about care packages, please check out our care package section of the site.
Places to write to our troops:
USMC Hangout - We have started our Write our Troops program once again. View a list of service members you can snail mail and e-mail. Also feel free to add your loved one to this list of growing names. You will need to register and sign up to be a troop supporter before you can view the database. This is done for extra security.
