Honored by Heroes

A little while back I had a fiver of cigars up for sale.

Zitro Joe said he wanted to purchase them and asked if I would ship them to Afganistan. I said no problem, no charge, and thanked him for his service and sacrifice.

Recently Joe asked me for my address to say thank you and this is what arrived.

I am truly humbled.

The certificate reads....

"Be it known by all, this flag was flown in the face of the enemy, and bears witness to the removal of terrorist forces threatening the freedom of the United States of America. It was flown into combat with great honor and pride aboard an EC-130H COMPASS CALL aircraft carrying out the Global War on Terrorism"
