U.S. Military postal system, a priuilege not a right by Tom Joyce American Forces Information Service Many service men and women have found that running mail order business selling everything from detergent to shampoo after duty hours is a good way to bring in a few extra dollars. But they should know that using the military postal system to conduct a personal business of any sort is strictly prohibited. ‘The military postal system overseas is merely an extension of the United States Postal Service,' said Army Master Sgt. Leonard N. Winnings, staff postal NCO at the military postal service agency in Alexandria, Va. “Under a formal agreement between the U.S. Postal Service and the Department of Defense, DoD customers can get the same service in overseas areas as they do stateside." But the reason service members are prohibited from conducting personal business through the military postal system is the DoD pays for the movement of mail to and from overseas areas. “In effect, the DoD would be paying part of the expense of running your business if you used the military postal system,’ said Winnings. Army and fleet postal offices are exclusively for personal mail, cautioned Winnings, and there are no provisions for prorating business mail. However, there are alternatives. Winnings suggested that people look into the possibility of using air or sea freight. He said some countries have services much like those of Federal Express and United Parcel Service. However, he said, those shipments would have to be sent to a civilian address in the country in which you are located. Winnings said international mail is one way of sending shipments to another country. Each alternative is subject to customs assessments, as applicable. Winnings said anyone found to be using the military postal system to conduct a personal business could be subject to military administrative or Judicial action depending on the scope and size of the incident. Anyone who has a question concerning this subject can reference Appendix A of the Department of Defense Directive 4525.6-M. 1 1 Nov. 7, 1986
