-(P

Just need one more week to get out of this sling so I can be an ambidextrous cigar smoker again

[Robulous78]

I like the Herfador with the site logo on it... Where did you get it?

[hotreds]

Traveling mercies, brother!

[Fordman4ever]

Rob, if you need CA stickers please post a thread asking for some. A generous BOTL/SOTL here on the site will send you one.

[Fordman4ever]

Good luck and God speed Padre. have a great trip and come home safely. Shoot me your address when you get there and I will send out some stuff for you and your troops.

[LostAbbott]

When you run low take a weekend and head over to Seattle, we will get you filled back up right. We don't have the best accommodation but do have ok ones for getting together for a herf.

[SvilleKid]

Have a safe trip, Chappy! smoke some good ones! Hopefully with each hand, soon!

[jjmitchem]

If I get an opportunity, which is doubtful :( , I will take you up on that offer to visit Seattle!!

And I will post a mailing address if there is one when we get there. I did pack about a quarter of them as give-a-way cigars - you know, the cheaper ones for guys who may toss it after about a third :sad

Oh, and having the callsign "Cigar-6" everyone expects you to have cigars to hand out :)

[Fordman4ever]

Great call sign.

[jjmitchem]

Great call sign.

I have to agree :tu. during my last deployment we had a First Sergeant step down so he could come home and retire. In his change of responsibility speech he took it upon himself to change me from "Strykehorse Spirit" to "Cigar-6" and it stuck!

[N2 GOLD]

Stay safe & kick ass... :ss

[CigarNut]

Thank you for your service!

[icehog3]

Thank you for your Service, Chappy. :salute:

[equetefue]

Stay safe brother

[jjmitchem]

Aaaaahhhhhhh

Only took me a week to find the time to sit down and enjoy a good cigar

A good book, some good coffee from "UXO Coffee", and a Tat

[icehog3]

Enjoy the R&R, Chappy, you deserve it. :salute:

[joeobx]

Thank you for your service Chappy, and stay safe.

[jjmitchem]

Enjoy the R&R, Chappy, you deserve it. :salute:

Well...... Got about 30 min worth :)

[icehog3]

Well...... Got about 30 min worth :)

You deserve 30 hours worth every day, but I am glad you got at least a little.

[jjmitchem]

Thanks to Fordman4ever here are a few of my guys enjoying a cigar after a long day of training

[Fordman4ever]

Glad they got there. I remember how much a good cigar helped me relax at the end of the day while I was deployed. Anything I can do to help.

[jjmitchem]

Here is another pic from our exercise. A little bit too cold to enjoy a cigar out here.

On top of a 2900ft hill - the old guy on the left is me

[LT_Blueshine]

Was at Yakima myself right before we deployed. Can't tell you that it gets any better. But good smokes can improve any situation.

I love Washington, hope you stay safe. I can only imagine how delicious that Tat was!
