Yes sorry i forgot to tell you i didnt know if i wrote it down in the package was going to say if that one was in someone’s package they would definitely have a great day i packed as many beans in that oversized blackwasher as i could fit in there like i was going to win a prize.
I thank you ! That was very thoughtful of you! I sincerely appreciate it
Hey there Veterans. Looks like the Canadian donations have landed. Hopefully the envelope with all the addresses in it makes it quickly. Looking great @Bobgrows , you are amazing. Thanks so much for all your work on this.
Hey thanks so much @DougDawson , you guys are truly amazing!
You guys are truly awesome. I’ll be sure to pass it forward, and a nice dose of the good kind of karma to all of you!
Ha ha, we have success. All seeds have made it to @Bobgrows and she has been working like a champ. The address labels got there today so there should be some envelopes landing in the near future.
nice to hear the canadian stuff landed… bet that was a big sigh of relief hehe
Found an old polaroid of me and some crewmates chillin’ on the flight deck in 1989 –
USS Elrod FFG-55 Operation Desert Storm
I am the goon on the far right:
You got that right. Whenever I send a pile of stuff across the border it is always nerve racking until it reaches it’s destination.
Nice photo shipmate!
here is a Cruise video from the Gulf war, USS Paul F Foster DD-964, Destroyer, first ship to fire from Gulf. Video includes, ship running from chemical cloud. Tomahawk launches. Helicopter runs, looking for mines, or recovering dead bodies floating… even a “beer day” @djtrip , lol. Hell even covered the “crossing the Equator”, for shellback rights, salute
Hapi
Was that beer day?
Sadly I do not recall but I do not believe so, I only remember having beer days on the days the ship hit port.
Great video @Hapi , it brought many smiles to my face and recollections to my mind. That poor prisoner of war though
Beer day for us was when we stayed at sea for more then 30 days in a row, you were allowed 2 beers lol. Not like we didn’t have are own stash lol.
Alright everyone!
Everything has been mailed. Start looking for some Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. They should start landing.

Thank you to all the donors as well!
