Naples Selected to Test Nourish Family Kit U.S. Hospital Naples is one of six locations in the Navy selected to help test the Nourish Family Kit. The opportunity is open to 24 families in the Naples military community. Those interested in participating will be asked to attend a one-hour family orientation, tentatively scheduled at the end of February. By mid-April, the six-week Family Kit testing period will be concluded and the contributing families will be asked to provide feedback through an online survey. Participating families will be able to keep the whole package. Visit http://www.nourishlife.org/navy for more information and to register. For more information, contact Lt.

Personal Post Office Box Numbers Effective April 15, service members will be assigned individual box numbers, continuing to incorporate the nine digit zip code, Zip+4. The new system will expedite address changes, reduce cost to the military postal system, and improve service to military personnel. The change will not affect how mail is currently received; if personnel use a personal box or a mail orderly, they will continue with that method. Please note that some service members will be required to change their shipping addresses for subscriptions and regular mail. All questions may be directed to mail orderlies or the post office.
