Summary: where to send postcards


Forget the kid in England.  I can give you another addressee who could
stand a little cheering up.
My roommate from senior year here at Princeton was ROTC and is currently
commanding tanks/APC's in the cavalry near the Czech border.  Early last
winter, he lost the last joint off two fingers on his hand in an
accident involving a hydraulic hatch (yuk!).  He would LOVE to get a
bushel of random postcards from kind hearts (although he sure hasn't
ASKED for any - but that's what will make it worthwhile!)
  So if you want to make someone's day, send an encouraging word via
postcard to

2nd LT Henri deMarcellus
K Troop, 3/2 ACR
APO, NY 09452

It will only cost you regular postcard postage (whatever that is now),
since it is Army mail serviced to him once it reaches New York.
And don't forget to ask him about all the women he's met over there
(ha!).
