...the guy taking the picture told him to "look sexy" for the camera.

"Sigh!"

Gotta love him.

Schmitty:

You are welcome to it! He sent a couple more of some of his friends with cigars as well, if you want them. He also said he has more group shots that he will send me as soon as he has a chance. I don't know if it's an OpFTH cigar or not, but he said it was a Gurkha Legend. Thanks so much for adding them!

Jrupertnh: What? You don't think that's sexy??? 😉

Teedubya: LOL! If it is, then he's smoking a much better Gurkha than *I'VE* ever had! Maybe it was really an HMR?

Whats so funny is he tried telling us this past summer that he don't smoke. Guess I know what to add to his Xmas box.

Froggy:

He actually didn't until just recently. We sent him a crapload of cigars in his first care pkg after he got back to base because he said that a lot of his buddies were cigar smokers and his (first sergeant? Don't remember exactly) was a complete nutcase for them. He shares everything we send him anyway (stingy with the hazelnut coffee sometimes, but shares everything else) so we figured he could just pass them around. Then he called a few weeks ago and spent most of the call talking to Andy about cigars and how to care for them etc. etc. Apparently, when he opened the baggies it smelled REALLY good, and it didn't take much talking for one of his buds to convince him to try one. Now he's completely hooked and trying to get a proper storage system set up because he wants to hit some of the Joe deals! He thinks he might be able to get a cooler and we sent him some cedar scraps, beads, credo units, etc. to help them set it up for the community cigar pile.

I won't say which ones hooked him, because apparently we have cigar snobs lurking about...;^) Suffice it to say that if his tastes in beer and coffee are any indication, he will very soon be spending more time with the Gurkhas and Super Fuerte Maduros we sent than with his "first love."

Schmitty: Still waiting for the other pics he promised. He said that they were moving his unit from from Point 'A' to Point 'B' and that he wouldn't have access to his computer to a few days. I'll post them over at OpFTH as soon as I get them. The address will remain the same. Thank you again for all you do!

Good looking young man, Queen Beez! You should be very proud.

Thank him for what he's doing protecting and serving this country. We all appreciate it!

Queeny,

Well sis, just mail me a list of some of his faves. Including the ones that the snobs don't know about. I wanna include that in it. But please don't say he went for the owl poop.

You know, the green ones stink like dollar-store play-doh...for real. Andy made me close my eyes and sniff each one that went into the Tag box. I had a vanilla air-freshener stuffed up my nose for the rest of the day trying to get rid of the residual scent...

Frog -

Side note: Beez Jr. smelled them too. He said, and I quote, "Holy CRAP that smells disgusting! Wouldn't that be kind of like trying to smoke a twizzler?"

^^Sorry, Toad. That was me. Beez been bidding AGAIN. Sending bulk boxes to James is giving him just the excuse he needs to "replentish his supply." Anything in particular you want for Christmas as long as we're trying to empty the CI humidor?
