Thank you Paul for the additional information. You can never have enough. The 12 x 14 x 4 flat-rate priority box is good too. Fill it up as there is no weight limit and it's a cheap price going to Iraq. Packages are great for those guys and gals. A buddy's wife got her 4th grade class interested in this. She says the kids absolutely go nuts when they get stuff back from their correspondents/penpals. She did say mail delivery to her class is the last thing she does on those days as she'd never get 'em back to the books.

I had a very good friend in India with the Pease Corp in the 1960's. Whenever I sent him levis I had to send two pair so he could get one.
