Eglin FL Air Force Base Post Office begins holiday mailing


It's not too early to start sending Christmas packages to military service members overseas.

At the Eglin FL Air Force Base Post Office, Sales and Service Associates Walter "Will" Williams and Marsha Ridenour helped the local 96th Security Forces Squadron (SFS) begin sending Christmas cheer to military service members serving abroad. 

Will and Marsha assisted in processing 38 Large Flat Rate Boxes for troops in Afghanistan. 

The 96th SFS had previously gotten boxes and custom forms before they came to the Eglin Post Office which enabled the process to go smoothly.

The boxes included cookies, games and magazines as well as Christmas cards. 

It's never to early to get start sending holiday cheer.

The deadline for Priority Mail to make it to military service members is December 17th.
