 With the holidays just around the corner, service members at Fleet Activity's Sausage Book Post Office are preparing for the parcels they're receiving to send to the states. Working in the post office during the holiday season is twofold. One is a lot of work and we do a lot of business during that time of year. The second part is there's a lot of joy and a lot of happiness given that time of year so it kind of balances out. For those that work at the post office, the holiday means putting in some extra hours to get the job done. To help those that work at the post office, service members will have to have their mail in before the deadlines for it to be back in time for the holidays. Space available mail is November 25th, priority and first class mail December 10th, and lastly have your express mail in before the 17th of December. It makes me feel good knowing that I can help my customers send out their mail just in time for the holidays. Seaman James Hunt, Fleet Activity's Sausage Book of Japan.
