BFPO

Colonel Stephen Heron, head of BFPO, said at this time of year everyone at the organisation was focused on getting personal mail through at Christmas.

“We have been working closely with the BFPO to develop an address and postcode structure consistent with Royal Mail's Postcode Address File (PAF[R]) that will provide businesses with the opportunity to make these services available.”

The BFPO allows post to be delivered to those stationed abroad.

SMS short text messages, and both Royal Mail and BFPO postal letters, as well as providing the very latest daily news in text format.

You only need the Op code and your son/daughter's BFPO number in the war zone and it only takes approx 10 hours to get to them.

The E-bluey Bulletin Board has been set up by the British Forces Post Office (BFPO) and can be accessed online at http://www.bfpo.org.uk.

Officers served their troops for one day, the pantomimes and fun runs took place, and 130 tons of Christmas post proved email will never replace a BFPO bluey.
