Welcome to the most addicting cigar site on the web!! Enjoy the "madness" (or is that maddy-ness) of the B/SOTL here. A great bunch of herffers with a vast amount of knowledge. And the cigars are pretty good too!

Welcome aboard!

Hi Justin,

Let me introduce myself too, I'm Keith and the Western Officer for Operation From The Heart (www.opfth.org).

We are a group of individuals that became aquainted through CBid, and send care packages to other BOTL that are in the military. It all began when one of our own from here was deploying his Marine Unit to Iraq. He recently returned to the states and another unit has taken over. We have adopted the new unit and also have sent packages to other military members that we know through CBid, and OpFTH. We would really like to make contact with you and learn more about your situation. Please send me an e-mail to (knof7393 at yahoo dot com). If you can include your shipping address over in Iraq, I think we might have some items for you, and some of your partners. I'm sure your not the only cigar smoker in your unit. Go check out our website www.opfth.org and you can see for yourself what we are all about. Don't forget to sign the guestbook while your there too.

Hello Justin, Welcome to CBid.... Also thanks for your service to the US of A....

after reading all the posts here especially yours on the bidding, I've got a question for you on storage?? do you have something set up to keep the cigars humidified??

if not I'll try to dig up my jerryrig I used while I was deployed for you to get a look at.. I know you probably have access to or know someone there who would rig you up a temp. humidor system... the thing you don't want to happen is your cigars and money spent on them to dry up to fast to be able to enjoy them ;0) and that sandbox can zap them fast....

Keep your head down and spirits up..

God Bless!!!
