MARSgram: Message Form

---

This is a free public service, intended to boost the morale of soldiers, airmen, sailors, and other authorized users worldwide.

To send a message, fill in the form below. Be specific and complete with all information. Any missing information may delay delivery of your message or cause your message to be undeliverable.

1. You can not send: initial notices of death, profanity, military troop movement information, commercial messages, or other sensitive information.
2. You must write your message in English.
3. Use the APO/FPO address instead of the local foreign mailing address when ever possible for messages going overseas.
4. This service is only available for messages going to or coming from the following catagories.

• US military personnel and their dependents.
• Department of State personnel and their dependents.
• Department of Defense personnel and their dependents.
• Military units or other official DoD organizations.

• If your message does not fit into the catagories listed above send your message via ham radio by going to the following web site: Send A Radiogram

5. Only non-commercial messages may be sent.

7. Don't forget to include the telephone number of the person you're addressing your message to. Messages without a telephone number will still, however, be accepted into the network but failure to include the telephone number may delay delivery of your message or, in some cases, cause it to be undeliverable.
