    This is awesome so far guys. This site, and I shouldn't be surprised, is simply blowing me away. Things like this are why this is my home board. The generosity and the caliber of man here is incredible to me. We are going to make some fighting men and women very happy.
    Ahem......a certain raisin might be a little miffed by this one Nate.

    Alright anyone who still wants to send a donation. We are looking at getting this thing ready to go this weekend so please get money out before then or at the very least send me a notification about how much you are pledging to this. Thank you guys again so much for helping out. Myself and my friend asked about this at work and I have to say the guys here have thus far kicked the crap out of the guys at work. It is awesome, and slightly disappointing at the same time, that guys on a website that only know me through forum posts really would band together behind this idea more so than people I have known for years. Once again you guys are amazing.

    So we purchased the cigars today and all told we were able to raise $812 for the troops. We spent $811.90 lol. We purchased the equivalent of 11.5 boxes of smokes and sent them on their way. Thank you guys again so much for the help with this. Stay tuned because we have made Jim promise to send us pictures when the smokes arrive.

    Way to go Nate!

    Thanks for taking care of this, it's always great to do something for those who do so much for everyone else!

    I just wanted to let everyone know that the cigars made it to the Jim 2 days ago. He was very excited and said the box weighed like 17lbs. He has not gotten with the other guys yet but I am eagerly awaiting pictures.

    All done and sent. Sorry Sarge. I am sure someone will set something up again in the future though. Thanks for your service.
