does anyone here know how I'd go about finding the address for a submarine?

I know Adam said I could send snail-mail cause they do mail drops once or twice... but he forgot to give me the address before he left. I was able to find their office address... but I think there's like, an "APO" address or something for the actual boat?

Is that something their office guys could tell me if I called? (I found the phone # too)...

Does anyone know if I have to go on base to send it? Or can I send it in the regular mail? I don't have any way to get onto Bangor till my friend comes home from Oklahoma in a few weeks.

Any clue what the mail regulations are? I can't find them anywhere. I remember he said something about manilla envelopes only... but he wasn't sure what the other regulations were, if any.

Google the ship's name and find the actual .mil site for it. They might have the snail mail address on there. You'll have to find out from him his department and everything though. You can ship mail to him on the ship from any post office. I have no clue about restrictions on subs.

you can type it in, in google and it should come up. My hubster is on a sub too and it popped up easily.

Awesome. I figured it'd just be something fun... and a surprise since he doesn't know I have the address.

I probably won't send a package... but definitely an envelope full of letters. Obviously nothing too personal... I don't trust them, hehe.

awesome, thanks.

lol... let's hope I remember his title thing right. I think it's FT3... that's what he told me and that's what's on his bedroom door.

Oh well... I'm sure he'll get it. Not too many people with his name... lol
