A lot of you have been sending me emails, asking when you should cut off sending mail to your Marines. It's taking about 2-2.5 weeks for mail to actually reach your Marines. With that being said, the last time you should probably send boxes and snail mail is around the 15th of July. Anything past that, I can't promise that your Marines will receive what you sent. We're moving around a lot, so mail has to chase us. As for MotoMail, you can send that all the up until about the 7th of August. The Marines will continue to receive that up until the day we move down to Kuwait to fly home.

I hope this answers your questions.
