Recently, there was a thread on the board in which Col West's e-mail address was listed in order to send him a message of support for his actions in the middle east ... I did so and have exchanged e-mails with him 3 or 4 times now ... in that correspondence, I had asked him if he happened to be a cigar smoker ... I'm sure you can guess why I asked, but the answer turned out to be no ...

I thought I'd share his latest message to me, inasmuch as the content is directed to all of us on the board ...

"Thanks so much for your support. As we Soldiers say, Hooah Sir!, I will dedicate my next cup of hot tea to you Sir and all those out there who're enjoying a nice cigar."

I too received a very nice reply.
