Sending bootcamp stuff back

yozongu · 01-06-2016, 08:00 PM

Hello everyone, I hope you're having a good day.
I have a question about the stuff you have to ship back during P-days. Is it ok to ship items to foreign countries? I have a family outside of the US that I would like to give my stuff to. I'm not really worried about the cost but I'm curious about if they allow it or not.

I dont think they really care where you send it to but when you get there you need to fill out the sheet correctly and make sure they know where you want it to go to. With respect obviously

What all do you plan on taking that someone would want if you don't mind me asking? My suggestion is to take only the bare minimum...just the cloths on your body, a watch, your wallet with ID, SS card, a few stamps and addresses...anything else you might have brought like a tooth brush and such just throw away. Why take it if you cant keep it and it means something to you?

I just graduated in August and anyone that was shipping OCONUS they just keep your box at the pearl harbor which is where you process
