Can i send this in care package?

Question

my bf is in BCT and i cant send him this stuffed animal i wanted to send to him for our anniversary, i got this necklace set of 2 thing. its like a lock and a key. the lock said he who has the key can unlock my heart. i want to send him the key in a chain. can i send that or is that considered a contraband too?

Answer 1

that is really sweet what you did for him but i would simply wait till it isall over with many things that get mailed get confiscated by his TI as others have mentioned and they dont alwayse get it back plus jewerly isnt really allowed unless it is religious

Answer 2

You can send it but it'll be put away so I would just give it to him at graduation and he can wear during his off time while in AIT.

Answer 3

send him your soiled thong underwear instead!

Answer 4

This is a little iffy. He may be allowed to keep it, but he will probably have to turn it in. The only acception would be a religious necklace. How long does he have left in BCT. You can send him a card and letter for your anniversary and save a gift for when he graduates.

Answer 5

i think it would be okay.  We sent jewelry to my brother for Christmas in his care package.

Answer 6

since he is basic....it will be taken by his TI....you should wait til graduation for both of them.  just send him lots of cards and letters.  when my husband was in basic  his mom sent him homeade cookies and his TI jumped all over him.  he gave away his cookies and he didn't get any.  

Answer 7

Be on the safe side and wait until he finishes BCT.

Answer 8

Just wait the two months till BCT is over.  There's a good chance that it will get taken away from him.  Send him a card with a promise of your love when BCT is done, but until then, just hold off on the stuffed animal and necklace.

Answer 9

cards and letters ONLY during Basic Training.  he has NO space to store anything else..and a cutesy thing like that will earn him lots and lots of pushups from his Instructors.
