That's what I thought. I'll have some drop shipped to her. Found some at another site for about 50% of what the mother-ship is asking.

Beth, expect some pillows from that rain forest place - estimated delivery on Thurs 6/11/2020.

Also have a box of Rosa Cuba Reserve Toros and a dozen singles I can toss in along with a few Boveda packs
Unfortunately all my protein bars are choc covered ( or cacoa ) and subject to melting so I'll save those for winter mailings
Can probably round up some candy to fill out the box
try to send by Monday

Thanks not just from me, but from the troops.

I received your care package yesterday. I wanted to correspond with you to tell you know the impact. Your generosity was overwhelming with what you sent, thank you. You should be happy to know that the cigars were dispersed last evening. There were no less than 15 satisfied and thankful Soldiers because of you. With everything still shut down combined with the 110 degree temperatures there is not much to bring smiles upon the faces of Soldiers. You should be happy you were able to break that cycle. Once again I thank you for my and other Soldiers.

Respectfully,

HENRY TEPLICKI

Beth,

Thank you so much for the cigars and pipe tobacco. You must have been reading my mind. The guys all looked like hungry wolves diving into package. Had to beat them back with a stick. LOL. We will send you the photos later of the guys after they turn peaceable. Thanks again.

As we approach redeployment starting in a few weeks, I would like to take the opportunity to thank you all once again for your sincere, caring and diligent support. May G-d bless you all with all the blessings in the Bible and much more. Your support throughout this Combat Deployment has played a tremendous and critical role in keeping our Paratroopers morale and motivation at peak while we were performing our missions in Afghanistan keeping our oath to our Great nation to Defend and Support the United Constitution, and our mission to keep America safe and protect American way of life for all Americans.

Very Respectfully,

CH (CPT) Yisahar A. Izak

(Chaplain)

Beth, As always your boxes are amazing. It just arrived today. Not sure if it makes a difference or not to the amount of support you can provide but we have a cigar night every Saturday for our local cigar group. We usually have about 25 Soldiers that come out. It’s a great event that brings not only US Forces but other nations Soldiers. We get to enjoy a cigar and learn from each other and relax. Can't wait to share with the cigar club. We meet every Friday and Saturday night here. Thanks again.

SFC Oxford John
