Milwaukee's Nude Mailman Delivers the Naked Truth

Was Milwaukee's Naked Mailman Lewd, or Just Plain Nude?

Linda Ann Nickerson
Mailman Dave, as Milwaukee denizens address the errant letter carrier, did more than go a little postal on his recent Saturday route. In fact, the suburban mail messenger actually delivered a little more than necessary, although the parcel was not exactly deemed first class by the recipient.

The exhibitionist mailman, stamped as a lewd behavior offender by Milwaukee police, apparently has been placed on hold until further investigation.

What happened with the nude mailman of Milwaukee?

The 52-year-old letter carrier dropped off the regular mail on Saturday, December 4th, at an office near Bayshore Mall, just north of Milwaukee. As he did, he noticed that the recipient, a Milwaukee part-time receptionist and university student, seems a bit overwhelmed and lacking in holiday spirit - or so, he thought.

Mailman Dave, who lives in Fox Point, Wisconsin, apparently told the young lady that he would deliver the next parcels fully nude. In fact, he later claimed that the office professional dared him to stand on his word.

Stepping into the hallway, Mailman Dave allegedly removed his official United States Postal Service (USPS) uniform before knocking on the office door and reentering.

The young receptionist supposedly recoiled in shock at the sight of the unexpected package, so to speak, and asked the unwrapped postal worker to leave immediately. In essence, she rejected the delivery, pronouncing the improperly wrapped direct male item as a "Return to Sender."

Perhaps she was too shocked at the time to ask whether the contents were fragile or perishable as well, or if the parcel would be more suitable for the proverbial dead letter office. What's more, the fledgling office employee found herself unprepared for the apparent unscheduled pickup.

Mailman Dave's surprise was neither priority nor certified mail, although the carrier himself might be labeled as certifiable in the end.

Perhaps blushing (or simply freezing), Mailman Dave quickly apologized and departed from the premises, but only after popping his head back into the office to apologize again. The receptionist then dialed 911 Emergency to report the event.

What happened to Milwaukee's naked mailman?

The U.S. Postal Service has confirmed that investigators are looking into the incident of Milwaukee's nude mailman. A USPS spokesperson in Milwaukee tagged Mailman Dave's behavior as "unethical."

In the meantime, Mailman Dave has been ticketed for lewd behavior and placed on unpaid leave.

Perhaps the U.S. postal service motto needs to be rewritten - or at least tailored, if you will - to fit Milwaukee's nude postal carrier, known around town as Mailman Dave.

Will the nude mailman start a naked delivery trend?

Let's hope not.

Milwaukee's Mailman Dave has been chastised for trying to deliver a box in the buff. The naked truth is out. There is no way to pass the buck, as it were, even in the city that boasts the Milwaukee Bucks.

OK, it's simply indecent to present packages unwrapped when delivering the mail for the U.S. Government. That's a no brainer, right?

On the other hand, the U.S. Postal Service, which has projected an $8.5 billion loss this year, might realize significant cost savings by considering bare bones budget items, such as uniform expenses. Still, what postal recipients really want to see the proverbial cat out of the bag during a routine delivery?
