Email Alert- Cannot deliver mail to an undisclosed recipient

Dear Church Family,
Below is an email I have received several times in the past few days. As I am sure many of you have received it as well.
This was such an awesome idea. I was going to include this in the next newsletter so I double checked the accuracy first. I do this with most of the military related emails I receive. I just went to the Walter Reed website, and they CANNOT accept packages or letters addressed to "any" or "a recovering soldier", etc. There has to be a specific name, or it is considered undeliverable. The same goes for packages overseas. Since 9-11 several changes have been made for security/terrorism reasons, and this was one of them.
If any of you know of any military personnel recovering at Walter Reed, or any other medical facility and wouldn't mind sharing their information and address, we would be more than happy to send as many letters to them as possible!
So please be aware that ANY email you might receive this holiday season that asks for mail to be sent to a soldier, and no names are specified, it is considered undeliverable mail by our U.S. government.

May they ALL come home safely,
Lisa Wahle
