    I have been doing this succesfully for a couple years but this will be the last batch of magazines I send out.

    If you are in the military and want some FREE magazines (car and bike) PM your name and contact info. You must make sure you have a full name and address that you have verified is good to get them. I only send them I am not the USPS.

    I got a nasty note from someone who sent me their info and for what ever reason didnt get a package. I assure you I am not playing games and just want to help out those that are protecting us. USPS now requires addtl paperwork filled out for customs. I have sent out more packages that I can count but I can't gaurantee you will get them for those that want to sue me over free stuff.

    That said send me your info and I will get you something to waste your time and keep up with the Hot Rod world!!!!!

    very nice jesture. Hard to believe someone would send you a nasty note for trying to do a good deed. I guess there are assholes everywhere....If I were over seas I'd appreciate your kindness.

    I have done this too. On the paper work where it says if there is an alternate name or address I was told by my local USPS to write Base Chaplain. They will find someone to use them.

    PM me; I can give you APO mailing addresses for specific site's PAO office's or Chaplain's office's. Contributions like this are awesome & very much appreciated, those magazines will get passed around and read until they fall apart!

    I've been going through my magazines and I would love an address to mail them to.
    I have a big stack to send out if anybody across the pond would like some!
    Sorry to hijack your thread.

    Gotwood sent me a stack while I was deployed in 2009! Second to the perfume soaked letters my wife sent, it was the best thing I recieved the whole time I was there.

    Super stand up guy! I think I sent him picts of me holding them in front of a Ceramic Mural of Sadam if I remember right.
