Apparently the US Department of DefenseWar thinks that they can order non-US citizens not resident in the USA to cease and desist from mailing things.

Uh…

Hilarity of the items involved aside, the gall of the US military postal service to give orders to civilians not under their command and not even of their nation is shocking.

For what? Using USPS is not compulsory. Having an APO/FPO is not a protected class. There are already restrictions on what can be sent to an APO (to include things that are illegal in the host country, like Bahrain). And logistics processing outside of your companies "normal" flow is not compulsory just to appease a US grunt.

There are plenty of companies that don't send to APOs and they continue to exist without doing so just fine.

    If she doesnt send stuff, she is leaving herself wide open to law suits.
