Hey, I just came back across this.
These guys are completely legit. They send out thousands of cigars. And get back photos from the troops enjoying the cigars. The FDA shenanigans really put a hit on their donations from manufacturers... but continuing private donations are still keeping them going.
If you have Facebook, check out - Operation: Cigars for Warriors
And... http://cigarsforwarriors.org/
They've recently changed the address from Bob's house in Homosassa, FL, to the B&M he works at in Ocala, FL.
I periodically order bundles of cigars at CI and have them shipped there directly. I also donate money to help pay for the postage.
The FDA really put them in a bind......... but they Endeavor to Persevere. :-)
