So I landed in Kabul on Monday, to a greeting of "You're headed to Bagram tomorrow".. So I'm in Bagram, can someone give me a heads up on when/where people are meeting? I'll be here tonight 5/12 and tomrorow, 5/13. Our and about 5/14-5/16, and probably back in Bagram 5/17 through 5/19 then back to Kabul. No access to anything yet.. Best I can do is my roshan phone, which I can provide via PM..

Jeez, talk about short. Nice to hear someone is short. Hopefully you'll all be short soon.
Hard to want to leave a station when it has an established cigar club, but I think most of you guys
would get over it. ;)
Thanks for sharing the COC photos, I'd like to see the tussle over that Guideon

damn its been tough w/o net access these last 5 days......no mail since Tony's stink bomb:r..........does anyone know if there are any inbound care packages inbound to my replacement FEKEM (Sgt Adams)?......I gave him all the leftovers I had and he (BCC) is running low on smokes...........hope all are well............last night was the big BBQ Herf w/Dust Off, we smoked alot of cigars, ate T-bone steak, burgers, sausage, wings ect and even had a jar of snkbyt sauce
hope to be home by the end of June and stateside by the the 25th

[Fekum]

Yeah, Last night was pretty awesome. There was at least 60 people there are the most packed time. Soldiers, Sailers, civilians, everyone. At the very end of the night we said goodbye to our great friend Tom. Our Battalion Commander presented him with an award, a certificate, and a flag flown on a medevac mission. It was really awesome. We probably went through 50 smokes easily. The food was great and the company was better. Thanks again to all of our supporters for making these types of events possible. We cant thank you enough. There were a few cameras out last night (unfortunately mine took a poop), and I will get my hands on them and post.

[newcigarz]

Tonight, a Buddy of mine and I went to the Tiki hut and smoked a Cusano 18 and and Paddila '68. Awesome smokes. Good times.

[abnCPT]

I spent 15 months all over Afghanistan back in 07-08 including a few weeks in BAF. I wish I woulda known about the Tiki Hut and all the cigar smokers there! You all supported my cigar efforts down at KAF (kandahar air field) and that was mucho appreciated as well. Back stateside for a while for some training, then it's back down range...
All you guys at BAF (and everywhere else)-stay safe! And make sure you have on your reflective belts!:rolleyes:

Whats up everyone? Last night's BAF Cigar Club Herf was awesome. We had a few nooooobs show up. A Marine female smoker, who liked the "stinky" smokes (Leon Jimenes Winter Wind) and of course she had a few stoggies with the Devil Dog on them (she wouldnt admit it but they sucked, go Army). Most of the regulars showed up, plus a few that just got back off of leave. Speaking of leave, I go on leave in 8 days! Greasy001 will be holding down the fort for me while I'm gone. I still don't have a camera but I'm going to look for one on leave so I can get some pics up here. Oh yeah, we had a few guys playing guitar and singing! It was a really good time. As always, thanks so much to everyone that's helped to support our wonderful hobby.

[SquareNoble]

Fekum,

Was that female Marine a LT? I've been to a couple of those BAF herfs.

[tobii3]

Heads up!!

I have two inbound - CPT and E-7 (both Army)- They were instructed to ask for the "Tiki Hut" when they arrive on BAF. They should be arriving around oh-dark-thirty tomorrow night!!

[Fekum]

Fekum,

No, she was an E-5

[Fekum]

Whats up everybody? Tonight was our weekly BAF Cigar Club Herf. We had a nice turn out. A few guys brought a little extra since our stock is a little low. We had a great time. I brought out a pic of my "Champion Brown Trout" if you know what I mean. Everyone got a kick out of that. Tonight was my last Herf until I get back from leave. Im attaching a couple of pics. Sorry about the quality, I had to use my camera on my phone (it SUCKS!). Thanks so much to all of you that make these events possible. This is my third year-long deployment and it has been the most relaxed yet thanks to you. A good stoggie after a days work is all I need to chill out.

[SNKBYT]
