I haven't posted of late but have traded here in the past. My office has two men serving in Bagdad and Afghanistan. I'm putting together a package for their unit for Xmas. Mainly CIGARS, jerky and hot sauce to name a few. Interested parties email me with

"Bound for Bagdad" in the title. bbqponyfunstuff at yahoo dot com

email sent.

I have been fortunate to trade many times with bbqpony in the past.

Greg, good to see you again. I will put together a box for the troops and send it your way soon. (might be a little something in there for your enjoyment as well)

DED

Email reply to Bubba and Bruce. Thanks very much.

Thanks also to ****** for the kind words. I know know you will do them right. You are always very generous.

The troops have a problem with cigars drying out. Mnay don't have proper storage. I'm thinking about putting the cigars in pairs and singles in individual ziplock bags with a cotton swab soaked in distilled water. This way the troops can grab and go without fear of the cigar drying out. Any other ideas?

thanks, BBQPONY

Try water pillows - available here in merch

Takes 20 sec to soak up distilled, then lasts up to a month...

email me the apo and I will add them to the opfth packages rotation.

We have some small jars of humidity crystals. I can send you a couple. They last for months and you can just add distilled water to revive them.

I will send an email shortly.

Who sent the package from New Bedford Mass? I can't read the return address label. I think it is Bruce? Looks like the box got soaked w/ water. The box was in such bad shape that it arrived inside a USPS plastic tub! Contents are in great condition. Magazines, puzzle books, gum, candy jerky, cigars and more. You really did a fantastic job. We are shipping the first box out to a Marine CPL in Northern Iraq soon. More details to follow. Thanks very much

bbqpony, Glad contents were intact and in good condition..kinds freaked me there for a second. Hope the troops enjoy. Bruce ( hunter1127)

LadyHay and DED, your packages arrived. Thanks very much. There is going to be a happy US Marine CPL (and unit) in Northern Iraq. Side note: I know several men serving in Iraq and Afghanistan and one of my buddies is at the Bagdad airport. He graciously said that he was safe and that all his needs were met, and he insisted that we send his package to a Marine in the thick of things. Great guy!

Sorry for the late update. There was a delay because the APO address change. A thirty pound box of cigars, jerky and assorted comfort items has been arrived in Iraq. Thanks everyone for there generous participation. You help make a bunch of US Marines very happy.
