Why these units specifically?
These are French "action" units present abroad and particularly exposed to immediate danger.
Where are the units that receive the packages located?
In the Sahelian strip, in the Levant, and wherever we can do it.
Are there plans to extend shipments to other units?
For now, no. But we sometimes send more symbolic packages to other units.
Do you have other associations similar to yours to recommend?
Soutien Commando is rather unique in its kind, but there are many associations doing exceptional work in different areas (wounded, remembrance work...)

What is the content of the packages?
Wines, whole hams, sausages, sweets, aperitif biscuits, Champagne, board games, cereal bars...
Treats and toys for our wet-nosed soldiers.
Do you only send shipments for holidays?
No, we cover all mandates of the units mentioned above.
I have doubts about the association, what proves to me that it is a real, serious and well-managed structure?
Soutien Commando is an official and declared association (Law 1901), and, in barely 5 years, has built a solid reputation.

Feel free to follow our Facebook/Instagram/Linkedin accounts: we share photos of packages and their contents there... but also invoices for product purchases and shipping costs.
Finally, do not hesitate to inquire with the operators if you know any.
Regarding the shop, what are the delivery times?
For patches, membership cards, stickers, shipping is within 24h/48h.
For clothing, it takes about 10 days. Why so long? Given the diversity of products offered, sizes and colors, it seems inconceivable for the association to stock a large quantity of textiles, but especially to risk its cash flow. That is why everything is made to order. Be patient, you will not be disappointed by the quality of our products.
You will automatically receive a tracking number by e-mail when the package is shipped.
Why are some products deductible in the shop and others not?
All donations and memberships are tax deductible (Article 200 of the General Tax Code). The purchase of patches, flags and stickers are also considered donations because the real value of these products represents less than 20% of their face value.
I have other questions, who can I ask them to?
