Quoted: Got a big box of cigars from WGanz but I haven't opened it yet to see what he donated to the troops. Will advise after school.    Holy shit. WGanz sent at least 80 cigars. You're the man! |

WGanz, I'm shipping your cigars out earlier than before the pass ends. You sent so many, that I'm going to combine it with items from the previous pass and fire them off.
Standby for pictures of the packing and tracking number(s). Thanks again sir. |

Got another unit. This one's a personal friend of mine who's doing his first tour in AFG as a 1LT for an infantry platoon.
Anyone have any objections to supporting him as well? He's asked for cigars or in his words, "Hell, anything, it'll go to use." |

Quoted: No objection here as long as we can provide all these guys with a good amount of stuff. Non issue really. At this point I still have 3 boxes of stuff with no cigars to send them out with, plus the ongoing pass. I think we'll take care of everyone pretty equally. |

Pics to come tonight after class. This lets me put together at least 1 probably 2 more boxes and ship them out right now. You're the man. |

So this week I've gotten two boxes chock full of troop cigars.
One box from Askonison And one from Wganz  Askonison's box is the USPS one, and the first set of pics.   WGanz is the brown box and the second set of pics.   Thanks very much guys.  Between the two of them, I can send out two more boxes at least. I'm working on building those right now, so standby for more pics |

Okay, here's the progress:
 ^Askonison I took your entire box, repackaged it up (added a few cigars) and am shipping it out to Prolific in South Africa. You did such a bang up job on packaging the cigars/box that it's good to go. He's been notified that they're inbound. Your box ships Monday, standby for delivery confirmation.   WGanz this is box 1 of 2 for you. This one contains the cigars you sent in the most recent box. These are going to 1LT Young in AFG who is a close friend of mine. They'll be distributed to his troops who are forward deployed on the pointy end of things. This one ships Monday as well. Stand by for delivery confirmation. This box is 100% cigars/packing, medium flat rate.   WGanz this is box 2 of 2 for you. This one's going to PluckMaster who will be distributing the cigars/supplies pictured to troops in AFG for us. This box contains the contents of your first big box of cigars + some of the leftovers from the previous pass and magazines. This one ships Monday, standby for delivery confirmation. This box is a chock full medium flat rate. This is getting out of hand  |

THANK YOU!
As a small token of appreciation to those of you who donated, please IM me your address so I can send you a Combined Joint Task Force - Horn of Africa coin. If anyone needs/wants anything from East Africa, don't hesitate to ask. Aside from that, I honestly don't know how to express my gratitude for your support, but I assure you it is most appreciated. I will be sure to update with pictures. |

I'd also be happy to send out pipe tobacco and supplies for our troops (a bunch of the troops I know are pipe guys). Any cigar/whatnot you send here will be sent overseas to our guys. They're not picky at all about what they get, so send away. IM me if you need my addy. |

Hey guys:
The patrons/owner at the Hill Cigar Co have collected a cigar or two for the troops. They passed them onto me tonight :D Needless to say, I'll be sending out a box or two chock full of cigars this week to our boys.   Also, I'm moving ShareTheToys to next to last in the order as he's out of town for work until a bit later on. I'm IMing everyone that'll affect, so if you have any questions at all, drop me a line. ETA what shitty pics. Sorry  |

Update: Prolific's cigars have landed. Got a small flood of emails of thanks today. I've redacted names/contact info, however if Prolific wants to post those up (keeping OPSEC in mind) he's more than welcome.
A friend of mine received some cigars from you which he shared with a few of us. I just wanted to extend my gratitude back to you and let you know that your kindness is very much appreciated. Nothing like having a good quality smoke in the evening. Take care and thank you again. Sir, I am writing you to thank you for the cigars that you sent MSgt **** (Prolific), he has shared them with all of us who work with him out here. Sometimes it is the little things that make us feel the comforts of home, and we do appreciate your support. Thank you again for your generosity, we'll be enjoying your gifts. I share an office with MSgt **** (Prolific) and managed to grab some of the cigars you sent. Thanks, a good cigar can take some of the suck out of this place. I'm going to write them all back and redirect them to this thread so they can be sure to see that it wasn't just me doing the sending and hell, maybe we'll get a few more folks addicted to black rifles  |

WGanz's box has landed. Here's the email I received from PluckMaster. I've had to redact a bit of info for OPSEC reasons.
Brad, received the cigars today (1st Nov). Thank you so much, as you can see I've moved to FOB ****. This place is right on the Pakistan border and a little more in the mix than ******. They call ****** "Rocket City" and it has a "Rocket City cigar club", basically a BS and unwind section every Sunday evening. I will ensure that the cigars are distributed as per you request, the tooth paste is a god send as the PX has none. At least three people will have minty breath now!, I'll write a hand written thank you as emails are a little in personnel. I'm sure I'll get stampeded as I hand out the cigars, On behalf of all of the cigar smokers at FOB ****** THANK YOU. It is warming to know that people have us in their thoughts back home. PluckMaster This email was followed by: My new address is. [Redacted]. The only thing that is needed is toiletries, soap - tooth paste - shampoo - deodorant etc. The PX convoys keep getting hijacked, like I said the tooth paste was a god send. You must be clairvoyant, thank you so much for the package. I'm going to take a smoke break out back in a minute. Looks like we've got a list of things these guys need if anyone is so inclined. Well done men |

Alright, game on.
PluckMaster requested toothpaste and pipe tobacco. Can do:   Base layer is comprised of about 14 boxes of toothpaste, most of which were left over from the last troop pass. Stuffed between those are toothbrushes, also from the last pass. To pad the toiletries is about 3.5#'s of pipe tobacco generously donated by Tim, the owner of The Hill Cigar Company in St. Louis, MO.    Prolific requested nothing but pipe tobacco and cigars, so guess what he's getting. The bottom layer is all tobacco donated by Hill Cigar Co. Sandwiched between are a few leftovers from the last pass, plus cigars donated by the patrons of the Hill Cigar Co. Both boxes are large flat rate USPS boxes and are chock completely full. Hopefully these will get a smile or two when they're opened. |
