Take some pics of the herf. It's humbling to see photos from over there. To think about the sh!t going on over there while we sit in our backyards without a care in the world... it goes without saying cigars alone are not enough to thank you guys for keeping us safe.

So last night we were all set; cigars, Gatorade, and a bunch of guys getting together for a mid afternoon smoke when the damn artillery guns go off and then we start "going to work" here on the base. Pictures will come soon, but not from last night guys. GOTTA LOVE WAR! :-) :-)

Stay safe, brother! Here's hoping most of the incoming will be boxes of goodies from the US of A!

I can't wait until I have enough of a collection to do things like this. Super great on you guys that could, God bless y'all.

Be safe over there soldier, you're in our thoughts and prayers.

Hey HOT REDS; Thanks for the smokes. I was able to grab a couple guys for a quick smoke break after one of our missions. I will get some more out. This picture is from an observation post overlooking the Afghanistan/Pakistan border. Thanks!:-)

Dan, I got your box today with the jerky, toffee, and microwave popcorn. I opened that box and after everyone smelled the jerky, I had no problem giving the stuff out. That box was distributed to my Soldiers and gone within 3 minutes. That was the quickest I have seen a box of goodies go. By the way AWESOME JERKY and TOFFEE! THANK YOU.

Awesome, you are most welcome!!
There should be two boxes brother. One has cigars in it, did that one show up yet?? Keep me posted!!
[Reply]

The 2nd Box has arrived from DAN and I must say that I nor my Soldiers have ever been supported like this...THANK YOU SO MUCH FROM THE SOLDIERS OF THE 64th MILITARY POLICE COMPANY. The box was full of cigars, movies, and some matches. Awesome choice. I think I am going to set up a movie night for my Soldiers and eat microwave popcorn and then smoke cigars afterwards. You folks on this site are great Americans. THANK YOU!:-):-)

Marc,
Any candy other than chocolate will last. Twizzlers, Gummi Bears, Starbursts, and any hard candy will last. Another cool thing would be like those small bags of chips you buy at the grocery store. Those pack well too. Thanks for thinking about us!
[Reply]

:-) Glad to hear it got there Daryle!! Let us know when you guys are getting low on inventory ok??:-)
[Reply]

Today came a nice letter, magazine, and this certificate from Daryle. Although I am named, it is really for all the wonderful troop supporters that provide me with goodies to send to the guys and gals in harms way. Thank-you, Daryle- more coming your way, brother!
[Reply]

Hotreds, no problem brother thank you for hooking me up with some smokes. We are actually going to hit it up tonight and burn one while watching the Afghan Security Guards do their night firing. Kind of like 4th of July in Afghanistan.

Break---
To all the other supporters who sent smokes, I sent you a Certificate of Appreciation as well from my Commander and self. Thank you for all your support.

Daryle:-):-)

Hugh, you are awesome brother! I received another box today with some smokes and some outstanding goodies. I truly appreciate it. You are a true American brother.

Daryle :-):-)
[Reply]

Thank you to all of those who have sent smokes this way. You are awesome. At least we can have a little sense of relaxation.

I received one as well from the Great Guardians. It was so humbling and so thoughtful, put me down in my chair for a bit, I am so proud and so honored to be able to send you guys a few things once in awhile. What we do everyday is absolutely nothing in comparison to what you guys do everyday. It is my honor to be able to send you guys some smokes and yum yums!!
I am framing it and it will hang in my office below my flag..ALWAYS!!

Everyone at work was very interested in it, now I will be hitting them up to help fill the boxes!!:-)
[Reply]

Alright scooby, got one that left this morning, so let's see,
thats... clickyclickyclickyclicky...ought to get it about the 20th.
I feel bad now that I know Hugh has got your back. I didn't send
anything LIKE a Hotreds box. But it'll be like dessert, I guess.

Now that I know it's not just YOU, the Acids ought to be really popular. :-):-)
Keep the baggie for yourself.:-)
[Reply]

That is a way cool hangout!! It looks very peaceful and relaxing. :-)
[Reply]

A Marine just decided to get involved so buckle down doggie and enjoy the smokes.:-) God bless you for the job that you are doing, I only did peace time duty and respect the hell out of you for serving in harms way. We all signed the blank check and they decided to cash yours. Any help that I can do is my pleasure. S/F Paul
