Evening all. New to the forums, just wanted to say hello, seems like a great community, very tight knit. Active duty Navy, just got back from a 9 and a half month deployment. Myself and a few buddies used Cigars for Troops while gone, if anyone donated to that program, myself and the Sailors onboard DDG99 would like to say Thanks!

Now that i'm back ill be sending some sticks there for those who are currently away.

Have a good evening!

Welcome aboard. Don't let the tightness scare you off. Just let people know who you are and what you think. Take your time and ease into this place and you will be welcomed openly. Great forum. Great people. Oh, and get a Vet assigned to your self to help ease into things and make recommendations on cigars so that you don't buy overpriced junk!

Including me.

But we'll let you hang around a bit.

PM CelticBomber with any order issues, he can help.

Hit up the 500 thread.
