I think porn is considered contrabanned materiel.

Is there a source for this? I want to send some stuff, but I wanna make sure that Joe Shmoe isn\'t collecting it in his garage.

This is a great post for a sticky..so I shall.

I\'ve already sent my sister a few things. Still have a few things to pick up for 2 cousins and a friend over there.

If you guys have it to give, please do so. You have no idea how much it is appreciated by our service men and women!!!!
