Apparently the US Department of ~~Defense~~War thinks that they can order non-US citizens not resident in the USA to cease and desist from mailing things.

Uh…

Hilarity of the items involved aside, the gall of the US military postal service to give orders to civilians not under their command and not even of their nation is shocking.

They practically only have a work address when they're overseas. In some cases it's literally the only way to get things sent to you. Why anyone knows or cares is another question entirely.

I read a previous article about this: importing any sex toys (including butt plugs, but they get the headline because the Republicans in power being squeamish about the existence of gay soldiers) are illegal in the country where they are stationed, so they're getting seized by customs and it's awkward since their soldiers are violating local laws.
