Deploying. Please help.

I guess I'll just have to get a friend of mine to take care of it for me. I'll wire him money or something. I'm not worried about packages being checked, they didn't do it last time. I'm going to a FOB, so it's not a necessarily established base.

Oh, and you're being paranoid.

Dude FOB's are just smaller than camp's. YOur getting lucky. Both times to Iraq and Afghanistan, we were stuck in fucking COP's and JSS buildings with fucking IA IP and AA and AP. So your good at a FOB. Anyways in Baghdad, and Logar we got our shit from the AP and IP bro. We had some huge dudes as terps so we got lucky that they had sources for gear. You can go that route or get a source that sends to APO's cause they dont check your mail coming in, or just get the shit sent to your addy in the states then have your girl or bro send it to you there. Good luck
 
Well, last year we were in Marjah, and even FOB Marjah was a complete shithole. Nothing there. I'm not entirely sure exactly which FOB we're going to this time, but it's in the same area. Hopefully I'll have a means to Western Union. All of our terps last year were tiny and pretty much worthless, so I'm going to assume that's a no go this time too. I'll just have to try and Western Union and have a buddy send it. My girl wouldn't do it.
 
Actually I may be a little paranoid but it is late here...but does anyone else notice that the first and second post both members joined this month and have lesss then 10 posts...Smells like CID to me lmao ...although I could just be overly fucking tired

Extremely paranoid... Lol I'm a marine at the end of a contract
 
why would they? they only care when you come back... then they're anal about it
at most they check your gear as in your issued gear and make sure you got what you need. anything you bring after that is on you. thats how it was for me both times.

yeah..... leaving country. as in coming back. you have to go through customs. been there, done that. I think you misunderstood what i was saying or something.

I meant to put states then. They never cared about what I brought overseas. It was comin back when they cared with all the customs like you've mentioned
