Safeguarding the Belongings of our Troops: Military Footlockers

by Jul 26, 2012

When our U.S. troops are far from American soil, dutifully serving overseas, we want them to be as comfortable as possible, providing them with as many conveniences as can be furnished abroad from the Home of the Brave.  That’s why at Advanced Packaging, Inc., we offer some of the most superior footlockers and trunklockers on the market.

It’s easy to take for granted all the space available to us in our homes and apartments to store personal belongings, but an overseas soldier’s options are a little more limited, which means that the space he or she does have for protecting his or her important items is crucial.  Footlockers – deemed so because they are, as the name suggests, lockers that typically rest at the foot of the bed – are ideal storage for uniforms, training manuals, toiletries, and mementos.  During WWII, it wasn’t uncommon to see these trunks decorated on the inside with famous pin-ups of the forties, and today you might find them clustered with photos of significant others and loved ones. They’re the perfect catchall for the important things in a military man or woman’s life.

At Advanced Packaging, Inc., our cases and accompanying cushioning systems comply with MIL-SPEC requirements and are available in over 10,000 original engineered designs to meet any need. These airtight, lightweight containers are shockproof and waterproof-built to withstand harsh combat conditions.
