Cigar Smoking Soldier in Afghanistan; Want To Support?

[ABNMP619]

Hey Team,
I am a U.S. Army Soldier back in the mountains of Afghanistan doing the lords work. Is there anyone out there that would like to support myself and about 4 other Soldiers who smoke on a regular basis with some cigars? Trying to find some people who would like to contribute to our wonderful habit.

Thanks to all that support! -(P

[MiamiE]

Daryle, do you guys need anything else besides cigars?

[DropTheE]

Daryle, do you guys need anything else besides cigars?

Yeah, let us know if you need some candy, or whatever. Cigars aren't the only creature comforts that you guys deserve!!

What kind of cigars do you guys like, size, shapes...put that up so that I can have some ideas. If you aren't picky that's fine but if there is something you had in mind, please let us know.

Thanks so much for all you do and we appreciate and admire your sacrifice and devotion!!

BTW, how long are you there for Daryle??

[ABNMP619]

MiamiE,
Other than cigars; magazines (cigars, sports, motorcycles, guns, etc.). A couple torch lighters would be handy too; or matches. Beef jerky sticks and small potato chip bags are always good as well. Thanks!

[ABNMP619]

To All,
Some have asked what kind of cigars we like; well..we mostly smoke anything! I see a couple of the guys smoking CAO, Commacho, and some drew estate's. As far as creature comforts; ANYTHING WORKS for us, we are not picky. Our unit will be here for 12 months; and YES, we just started. Once again, you all are AWESOME! MAN I LOVE AMERICA!

[DropTheE]

America loves you right back!!:usa

[DropTheE]

Daryle-
I have about 30 movies boxed up, this weekend my wife and I are going to make some toffee and I have some jerky all made up (beef) and some cigars (that are coming to me, haven't got the order,they have shipped but not here yet). We are going out this weekend to buy a sealer machine so we can do this up right and keep stuff fresh!! Do you guys have a microwave, we would like to put some micro popcorn pouches in there too, unless you have some already over their, then I will use the space for other goodies!! That way you guys have a theater in a box, with munchies and cigars to boot. (Wife came up with the whole theater in the box thing, she cracks me up!) Let me know on the microwave. Once we get the cigar order, should be mid next week I think, It will all be coming your way!!
My wife is totally fired up on this box mission, she just keeps throwing movies in the box right now!!:r

[DropTheE]

2 packages are on the way to Daryle!! :tu
Enjoy buddy!!:ss

[ABNMP619]

OK, OK. So today I got back from my missions and seeing my other Soldiers out in the battlefield and when I got back I had a couple boxes filled with goodies and cigars. I want to say THANK YOU to HOTREDs for sending me a box full of cigars, AWESOME! THANK YOU. Attached is a picture of myself (middle of three with bald head), my commander on left and one of my LTs on the right side of me. They were like Holy S****. My eyes were as big as they could be. You folks are awesome. Thanks so much. Tonight I am hosting a HERF with some fellow Soldiers and we are going to enjoy these cigars. THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN SO MUCH! I decided to fill my small little humidor with some as well.:tu

[DonnieW]

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.

[ABNMP619]

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! -(P :tu

[hotreds]

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

[E-Tx Surveyor]

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.

[ABNMP619]

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!:tu

[ABNMP619]

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!!

[ABNMP619]

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!:tu-(P

[Neuromancer]

Oh, wow, Daryle...missed this the first time around...gonna see what I can get together for you guys...keep your butts safe...:salute: :usa

PS - What kinda candy can be sent that won't melt into a puddle of goo on the way?

[smelvis]

WTG Guy's good to see ya all taking care of our troops.

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!

:tu Glad to hear it got there Daryle!! Let us know when you guys are getting low on inventory ok??:D

[hotreds]

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!

[ABNMP619]

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-(P:tu

[ABNMP619]

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 :tu-(P

[ABNMP619]

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!!:r

[OLS]

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. :confused::rolleyes:
Keep the baggie for yourself.;)

[DropTheE]

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.

Daryle



That is a way cool hangout!! It looks very peaceful and relaxing. :tu

[taltos]

A Marine just decided to get involved so buckle down doggie and enjoy the smokes.:D 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

[ABNMP619]

taltos,
Just remember, we are ALL still brothers and sisters; regardless of peace time or war time. Thanks for your service brother!

[ABNMP619]

Hey All,
DONT FORGET, if you are mailing a box, please add the new APO AE 09310 to the address. The old APO AE 09354 will not make it to my destination after 1 AUG 10. THANKS!

[ABNMP619]

You know I must be crazy for smoking cigars at 1230 in the afternoon with a heat index of 115. I did this the other day at one of bases I was visiting, dang I must be stupid or something.

[ridenlive]

[Neuromancer]

Keep your eyes open, top kick...I threw few small things together for you and it went out today...hopefully you'll have it in 7-10 days (or less)...

[ABNMP619]

@ Ridenlive: I just thought it was crazy, but heck, if others are doing it then I am good. Thanks! :banger

@Nueromancer: I truly appreciate the support. My wife is sending me a damn camara so I will start posting pics of these little smoke sessions we have so you folks can see where your stuff is going. Thanks again!:tu

[SmokeyJoe]

SWEET!

Thanks for representing us all, Hugh... another reason to be proud of CA. :tu

[taltos]

Dan, there is a box going out to your business address tomorrow morning, hope that the troops enjoy and hope that I can make this a habit. Paul:tu

[ABNMP619]

HUGH and OLS,
You brothers are AWESOME! THANK YOU! I got your boxes today! Hugh, you always support me and I can not thank you enough for your continued support, always puts a smile on the faces of the cigar smokers in Asadabad, Afghanistan.

OLS, the pipe and pipe tobacco are awesome. I truly appreciate the wonderful sticks as well. I truly love the support from all of you from CA. You folks have truly made me feel like I am at home with the support! THANK YOU!

-(P :tu

[TripleF]

Thank you and all the others for your service Daryle!! :tu

[ABNMP619]

TripleF, no problem brother! I love this stuff. Hunting the Taliban is more fun than fishing with grenades! HAHAHA Sick I know. Thanks again. -(P

[ABNMP619]

To all the supporters out there that have supported this unit with smokes THANK YOU! I wish there was something more I could do to give back. If there is anything I can ever do to support you all, please let me know. I try to send out a certificate from the Commander and I to each supporter.

THANKS TO ALL MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS OF CA! You folks are awesome.

First Sergeant Daryle Walker-(P

[Donny007]

Hi Daryle, just came across this post. Can u please repost the new address your at. Would like to get a package out to u and your unit. Want to make sure I have the address right. Thank you for everything you are doing.

[Chingas]

+1.

Always down for supporting our brothers and sisters out there risking their lives for our continued freedom.

Hugh, is anyone putting together one large care package or is everyone sending these out on their own? I have no problem with either.

[hotreds]

I have 13 guys I send out at least one of the "troop support" boxes to every month. I am sure that all goodies the guys get will make them happy, so even though Richard and myself are the "official" CA box senders, others also sending stuff is nothing but a wonderful thing! HUGHRAH!

[ABNMP619]

WOW! You guys continue to impress! I must say this from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!! I came back to my base camp after about 5 days of traveling, seeing my Soldiers on the battlefield and I am told I have a box from mail call. I look at the label and the first thing I recognize is the bold lettering that says "NEUROMANCER-CA" I then said OH CRAP, ITS A BOMB! And sure as heck here is what I got hit with.

MUCH LOVE GUYS! THANKS! :tu

[Chingas]

Sweet Hit. I wasn't part of that hit but those Brothers hooked you up! I hope you enjoy the smokes and reading material! Well done Brothers!

[Neuromancer]

YEA!!! It made it...was beginning to worry customs grabbed it for some unknown reason...enjoy...

[ABNMP619]

Once again, I have to say Thank you to HOTREDS for some more AWESOME smokes. Brother you are truly a blessing. I have been smoking with the guys out here every Saturday and I always take a bunch of sticks with me. They always say "how do you get all these cigars?" I never hesitate to tell them that the folks at Cigar Asylum are the best! Thanks again HUGH! I truly appreciate it!

Sorry about the Navy blue;)

[ABNMP619]

Mark,
No worries about the Navy blue brother, I am working for a Navy Commander now with this PRT. All the guys I smoke with are Navy, except for a couple of them. I will truly enjoy the Navy/Army game this year. Probably going to get our butts whooped again, oh well. We will see! Thanks for the re-post brother. :tu

[ABNMP619]

BOMBED AGAIN! You folks are AWESOME! THANK YOU so much to R. Reis and the brothers that supported. Excellent cigars! Your support is truly appreciated! I hope you guys don't mind, I already got pushed about half the stash to my Soldiers. You have truly made our day! Thanks again! :tu :D

[bobarian]

Daryle, Glad everything arrived safely. Pushing them forward is exactly what we hoped you would do! I hope to have another box ready to go in a few weeks. Stay safe and thank all the guys/gals for their service. A few cigars is the least we can do for you all. :usa

[ABNMP619]

You guys are awesome! Thanks again for all your support. I will be posting some photos for you here in a couple days of us smoking. :tu

[Chingas]

That's fantastic. Well done Brothers!:tu

[ABNMP619]

So some of the guys heard I got more smokes in and we had to light it up. Here is a couple pics of us enjoying the smokes from the boxes that have been sent. The guys in the civlian clothes are contractors, they support us, so what the hell, we supported them. Thanks again guys! :tu

[hotreds]

Outstanding, gentlemen!

[Chingas]

Great pics Brother! Thanks for sharing and of course for your service.

[Ahbroody]

Nice to see

[ABNMP619]

You know someone has to nominate HOTREDS for his OUTSTANDING support to the Soldiers throughout Afghanistan. You deserve the support a service member medal for all your support. He is awesome. Just received another box from him with a ton of awesome smokes and some good snacks. Thanks HUGH! You are awesome brother. The Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and civilians on Forward Operating Base Wright said "THANK YOU" for your support. :tu -(P

[area51]

It makes me so happy to hear about all this support.

[hotreds]

You guys deserve all the support we can muster! We're happy to be able to provide a little R&R for you over there, and pray for nothing more than your safe return home. And, for the day we no longer have to send stuff overseas to our brave troops!

[ABNMP619]

Amen Brother! Well, when I get back you got my full support on anything you need. Thanks! :tu

[OLS]

OK Home-bre, I am going to get another box out probably tomorrow with some 'big-boy' pipe
tobacco in it. I'll put cigars in there as well, plus some matches. No telling what is coming this
time, though, cause I have depleted my once mighty supply of troop-support cigars in my last
box to RRP. So it's gonna be a real pot luck.

[ABNMP619]

Hey AM-E-GO! Thanks for the support. I smoked the first pack of that tobacco you sent last time, pretty good. I appreciate it. I am pretty well stocked on smokes right now due to HOTREDS and his crew. So, if you want to hook up another brother that would be truly appreciated as well, but I will NEVER say no to pipe tobacco and cigars. :D :tu

Thanks again for all your support!
