A definite "yes" for mailing compression shorts during plebe summer. Mine also asked for good smelling body spray/deodorant - he said everyone was quite smelly throughout PS. During PS I wrote letters and placed in plain white envelopes (no stickers or cutesy things written on the outside - plebe wanted all PS mail to be sent "under the radar." During the school year, DS asked not to send long letters because he didn't have time to read long letters, but he liked receiving mail; so I sent a postcard 5-6 times a week. I asked my co-workers/friends to pick up post cards when they traveled and for DS's entire plebe year I was able to send postcards from all over the world (places I have never been). I think half the fun was seeing the exotic/beautiful places on the cards. I also went through an "animal" phase where I sent zoo post cards of all sorts of animals (especially monkeys, apes, chimps, etc. - because it's kind of a family joke to give a monkey card for every occasion).
