Abstract: Attacks from improvised explosive devices (IEDs) are one of the major causes of soldiers being killed in action (KIA) and wounded in action (WIA). Such improvised explosive devices can cause considerable damage, disability and death from a device as small as a cellular telephone, to several thousand pounds of explosive material, and linked military artillery munitions, capable of cutting armored vehicles in half, to completely destroying the vehicle and killing all occupants within. A wide range of protective wear/gear or garments, have been designed to shield against a percentage of explosive blast effects of smaller less lethal improvised explosive devices and munitions, in an effort to reduce human casualties associated with explosive ordnance disposal. However, such protective wear/gear or garments have failed to keep pace with the evolution of improvised explosive devices, their destructive capabilities, and the technical sophistication of those responsible for their creation and fabrication.

Abstract: A mailer primarily composed of three layers, or sheets, that are fastened on top of one-another. A back sheet forms the back of both the outgoing and return mail pieces. The back sheet includes the reclosable flap and further includes an opening to allow external viewing of an identification code marked on a media sleeve that is placed in the finished mailer. A second sheet is a middle sheet fastened on top of the back sheet. The middle sheet also has an opening, and is attached to the back sheet such that the middle sheets opening aligns with the back sheet opening. A disk receiving slot is formed between the back sheet and the middle sheet. The aligned openings in the back and middle sheets are located in a center of the disk receiving slot. A third top sheet is removably attached on top of the middle sheet. The top sheet includes delivery markings for original mailing portion of the mailer.
