This is all new to me. About two weeks ago I had my first good cigar and that was given to me by a fellow Soldier. His generosity and sitting down with him and his friends, talking, smoking and sipping on a pepsi, gave me a moment to escape from reality. A few days later it struck me that it would be great to return that Soldiers favor. I was on-line looking for cigars when I came across your program and I was awed by the fact that there were people out there supporting the troops in such an awesome way.

With that said I do not have any means to store cigars. I was hoping that on Sundays the Soldiers could get together and enjoy a good smoke. I'm not sure how generous the Club Stogie members are or really how many Soldiers would partake (we have rougly 4,000 in the BDE). I am located just North of Baghdad, but my BDE has small outposts throughout the northern part of the city. It would be to easy for me to push donations out to them as well, as they are the ones who would will really enjoy them.

Thank you for your quick and generous reply,

CPT Ryan ********

I bolded the above. Hmmm.... OK brothers, let's show some love to the men.

If I wanted to help out by putting together a sampler of sticks to be bid on, is that a possibility?

DOh! Thanks for the clarification. 9pm my time

[newcigarz]

I would really like to see some movement tonight on this.

Currently there are 9 Auctions that have not met reserve.


Thanks to everyone who has bid so far.
The men and women who are serving our country appreciate the support. I try to share as many e-mails and PMs that
I get. so that every CS member knows how much this program means to our
BOTLs and SOTLs in harms way.

Mega dittos to the above. Bless 'em all!

Whoever is first to bid the reserve price for one of the Silent Auction prizes listed below will only have to pay 75% of the reserve price. Someone has generously offered to pay the rest.

For example. You bid $100 for an item and this is the reserve price. You will only owe $75 and our benefactor will pay the other $25. Oh, and you get to keep the auction item.
