Can soldiers receive mail at Ft. Bragg while attending SFAS? If so, is there a "standard" address to use?

He really doesn't need mail at SFAS. I don't remember anyone getting mail while I was there but it may be different.
1 - He needs to focus on the event at hand.
2 - If he needs written motivation (while not a bad thing), he's trying for the wrong career field.
3 - I imagine he (or at least his body) will pay dearly for the mail.

There are some cadre members who will give you an address if there is one.
I understand from your post your son is attending selection and you're trying to do the best thing for your him. The best thing for him now is a supportive family that will take care of the home front (bills paid, happy girlfriend/wife, kids are taken care of) until he returns.

Do you really think that you will have free time for stuff like that? When, between trips to the PX and fast food places?
Don't worry about crap like that, but work on getting over that hurdle.

I always wondered what would be found in that derelict mailbox (that we were told not to use, because it was not used) that was bolted to the ground next to the old classroom?

Ma'am, I did not realize you were his mom. He will call you when he is able to talk, but in the meantime he needs to focus because if he is distracted at all, he will fail.

Just in case, it should be said, that in an emergencies, IIRC a communication can be sent to him, I believe thru the Red Cross, although I imagine the cadre would be equally open to getting something important thru to him.

Others here will be more clued up on the details.

I just wouldn't want you to think he was not contactable at all.

Thanks, all! His girlfriend (also AD Army) has been wondering, as well. For my part, I'm still feeling guilty about the fact that I wasn't as diligent as I wanted to be with sending mail to him while he was in Ranger school, so I don't want to mess this up. What about during the Q course (assuming he makes it)?

I'm ex-military myself, so I do know the drill regarding emergency contact. :)
