I was watching Band of Brother and wondering how those paratroopers got letters from home. Did their family need to know their nearest base? Or could they simply write their name and battallion? If I want to mail a package to a sailor do I just the ship’s name? Or a port? I’m not actually mailing anything I’m just curious how that works. How much postage do you need to mail to a ship overseas?
Ship mostly yes under normal conditions.
Submarines on the other hand…
