OLS is the man!! Gotta say thanks

Hi all,

Normally a post like this probably belongs more in the Troops forum, but I wanted to voice my gratitude more towards the CA community and overall attitude in general, and not just for troop support.

I just got back from the sandbox about a week and a half ago and I'm far from settled in or adjusted. As some of you may or may not know, war is "99% sheer boredom and 1% terror". I began getting into the hobby while over there, and came to CA knowing really nothing in search of something more than the dried out "cigars" (basically giant cigarillos) they have over there. Anyway, OLS offered to send a few sticks and I can't explain how much of a difference on morale it was just to have something different (and some VERY good sticks!) to smoke. Especially towards the end when we lived in tents and had no missions, the cabin fever probably would have turned us all homicidal if we didn't have the cigars as an excuse to get out and get away.

Anyway, just wanted to say thanks to CA and especially OLS for demonstrating what the hobby is all about. I'm going to pay it forward and start spreading the love to soldiers over there once I get settled down. Can't wait to try more sticks now that I'm home too..!
