This is what I'm using while in the "Sand-Box"

It an old 20mm Ammo can that Gringococolo and one of my SSgt's, SSgt Sentes, made for me as a going away gift when I left Japan...

The thing is sweet, painted in Jet-Black with car paint, cedar lined, personalized, and built with love.

The thing keeps my cigars at a perfect 65-69%and is working like a champ...

True Friends and a great gift to boot,

On-On,

It's nice to have a combat-ready humi! I've got a few smoke to help fill that up - I'm sure your buddies will be mooching off you. Drop me an email at jburgessx2ATyahooDOTcom

TBU,

I wish it was that easy.

I'm actually on a FOB just outside of Camp Taji, but we have our own helo pad.

Charlie, Todd, Kimon, Chiefburg and Shovelgrrrl….

Thanks for taking care of our troops and supporting them the love that only CBid can…I appreciate your generosity and offer to send smokes to me, but I really am all set…Thamk you again…

JR, I actually have two Marine MMT’s that I support at the FOB’s…Sahl Sinjar and Camp Korean Village. Are you close to either one of those? I’m heading to Sahl Sinjar TMRO in the AM.

Bloody, How are you Brother? Welcome Back!!! I once heard a rumor that you were “banned for life” and “never getting back in”…it’s good to see you back here…it livens things up a bit.

On-On,

TBU

Nope. Taji is about 25kms north of Baghdad. Sahl Sinjar is way more north than that.

Have a safe trip.

ha ha ha, vintage Jim. "Jr, swing on by." used to say that to me...though we live FAR apart...and i have no car. but that SOB would drive all the way here just to pick me up and bring me back to his place.

HURRY your ass back to Japan!

That is a nice humi, hope you are doing well over there. If you need anything from Japan (other than your family, can't do that, LOL) let me know, APO to APO is easy.

Well James, if your humi is, as you say, "all set", is there anything an old corpsman might send your way ???

Isn’t BLUE your favorite color?

(and I don’t mean the LA Sapphire tubos) *lol*

Stay safe, and EM me when you can.
