Military Working Mail
Mail addressed to an FPO or APO address should
be bundled separately from other mail. Bundles for
FPOs and APOs and other mail not to be returned to
CONUS (for example, Guam and Hawaii when in
WestPac) should be identified by a nonstandard facing
slip labeled Military Working (see figure 9-13), placed
on top of the bundle of letters. Send this mail to the
serving FMC for further dispatch.
MANAGED MAIL (MM) LETTER TRAYS
Managed Mail (MM) trays are used as a means to
dispatch large volumes of letter mail. MM trays should
be used by your command if volume of letter mail
warrants. If not, then use Priority Mail No.1 pouches
as your dispatching equipment.
Full-sized MM trays hold an average of 600 letters
(average full tray weight is 8 kilos, 17.5 pounds),
