Just FYI, there's a post going around facebook giving an address to send cards to any wounded servicemember care of Walter Reed medical center.
The post is a well intentioned hoax.
The USPS will not accept mail sent to "any servicemember", mail sent to soldiers/sailors MUST have a recipient on the address, otherwise it either gets shredded or returned to the sender. This is due to the anthrax attack(s) following 9/11 here in the US.
If you want to help a servicemember, use this link:
