This petition would keep postal services running at full capacity for our brave men and women deployed to Afghanistan. This is to ensure that they receive the much needed material, moral, and physical support that they need and depend on from home. This is especially critical at this juncture due to so many of the other creature comforts and essential services being reduced and/or completely eliminated in theater. At some smaller Forward Operating Bases Post Exchanges are being shuttered, hot Chow reduced or eliminated. Then there is mission essential gear such as after market tactical gear, supplements and other things service members depend in the postal service to deliver to them.
