Important Mailing Information
Important information. The postmaster does not have the staff to research addresses for cadets
so if the address is incorrect or incomplete, the cadets will not receive the mail.
POST OFFICE BOX, FEDERAL EXPRESS, UPS, and DHL INFORMATION
from the USAFA Postmaster
See Flyer
The correct mailing address for your cadet is crucial. Mail not deliverable due to the incorrect address or insufficient information will be returned to the sender or sent to the Dead Letter Office (if there is no return address).
In addition to regular mail (envelopes) you may also send packages to the post office box and the cadets will receive a note in their boxes instructing them to pick up their packages at the counter. The address must be complete and correct. (Note that the zip code for cadets is 80841 rather than 80840.) The correct address for all cadets is below:
John Doe
PO Box xxxx (post office box number)
USAFA CO 80841-xxxx (post office box number)
(If you wish, you can also put the cadet rank (C4C, C3C, etc. before the name or as a basic cadet it should be ?Basic Cadet John Doe?)).
If you choose to send a package via Federal Express, UPS or DHL, you need a street address. They will not deliver to a post office box. The pick up location, called Pak Mail, is in the Cadet Book Store in Vandenberg Hall. Below is the correct mailing address:
John Doe (add the rank before the name if you wish)
Pak Mail
2360 Vandenberg Drive
USAFA CO 80840-xxxx (*post office box number)
*The post office box number is added to this as a 4 digit zip+4 and a means of identification when the cadet picks up the package at Pak Mail.
Club note: The USPS flat rate boxes work very well for sending items to the cadets.
