If it's to a soldier, then yes. I received many a carton of cigarettes form my mother while I was deployed to Iraq. Generally try to send less that two cartons at a time and make sure that they're sent through the US Postal service.
You say goodbye.
The army deployed its troops in the foreign country.

The ship has been deployed; it left San Diego (I believe) the second week in November and is on its way to Iraq.

The soldier and his military comrades are packing for their third deployment to Iraq.

If you break the law? Yes. If you commit a crime in the civilian world, like stealing jewelry at the mall or getting drunk in a bar and getting into a fight, you will go to a civilian jail. You will ALSO get in trouble in the military. If you commit a crime on a military post against military people - beating up another soldier or stealing another soldier's wallet - you will go to a military jail and get in military trouble.
No. You must undergo more specialized training for your MOS. When and if you get deployed also depends on your unit. Also, considering that all US combat units are due to leave Iraq before September 2010, the chance of getting deployed there is incredibly unlikely.
