May is just around the corner, which means that Armed Forces Week is coming up in the United States. We thought we\u2019d celebrate by listing some great subscription boxes that you can gift your loved ones currently serving in the military! Whether they’re Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps, or Navy, one thing is certain: they’ll appreciate someone thinking of them and giving them a treat\u00a0to look forward to in the mail each month. All services mentioned in this article ship their boxes to APO and FPO addresses.<\/p>\n

Here’s to making sure your loved one knows that you think they\u2019re both an officer and a gentleman. Sir? Yes, sir.<\/p>\n
A monthly Bespoke Post<\/a> Box of Awesome is a great reminder for your distinguished military man that while being out in the field can be grueling, there should always be time to kick back and relax in style.<\/p>\n For something similar but more on the fun side,\u00a0Gentleman’s Box<\/a>\u00a0offers themed packages–Secret Agent, Mad Man, Archeologist, etc.–plus the latest issue of GQ Magazine. Birchbox<\/a>\u00a0also offers subscription boxes for men, containing a\u00a0monthly selection of grooming and lifestyle items. More suggestions can be found in our list of best subscription boxes for men<\/a>, though we can’t guarantee that every service mentioned there ships to APO and\u00a0FPO addresses.<\/p>\n She’ll love a monthly stash of beauty, health, and lifestyle products. We mentioned Birchbox earlier as an option for military men, but it’s really the service’s flagship Birchbox<\/a> for women that provides the best value. You can even use an app on your phone to manage the subscription.<\/p>\n For a pricier but more luxurious alternative, with a wellness and relaxation slant, try Indigo Beaux. For a quirkier care package, you can send a Hammock Pack: a monthly themed “staycation”\u00a0bundle. Similar services are reviewed in our list of the best subscription boxes for women<\/a>; but again, some have limited shipping capabilities.<\/p>\n This subscription box is actually curated for college students, but the service specifically states that it works for military service members, as well. Filled with healthy snacks, weekly devotions, and a practical item, these monthly SoulFeed packages will nourish your loved one completely. Shipping is free to APO and FPO addresses, too!<\/p>\n We recently compiled a separate list of great subscription boxes for Christians<\/a>, which you can check out for more suggestions. The best part: Every service mentioned in that article ships their boxes internationally.<\/p>\n For people crazy about their\u00a0fandoms and favorites, wearable and displayable merchandise are\u00a0always great gifts. Enter:\u00a0Loot Crate<\/a>. Marvel Universe superheroes, beloved anime characters, Sanrio mascots, video game references–you name it. There are different boxes to choose from, and men and women alike will be thrilled to receive monthly little additions to their respective fan collections.<\/p>\n This type of subscription box is actually quite common, and you’ll find many alternatives! We mention some of them in a separate list of boxes that ship internationally<\/a>–you’ll find the geek-targeted offerings\u00a0at number two in that article.<\/p>\n These survivalist subscription boxes are typically full of emergency supplies, EDCs–“Every Day Carry”; meaning a portable, unobtrusive and often multi-use tool you can easily bring with you daily–and hunting or tactical gear. \u00a0BattlBox\u00a0starts at $24.99, but the most over the top package of this service costs over $150! Truly something to give someone special, for them to look forward to each month.<\/p>\nMore Options<\/h3>\n

Yes, military men and women are just like everyone else! They each have interests that they can be geeky about. But when maintaining a serious career path, keeping up with pop culture and other passions can fall by the wayside.<\/p>\nTop Pick: Loot Crate<\/a><\/h3>\n
