Title: I need a favor/Thanks guys...have enough!
Post by: Robert Honaker on August 17, 2011, 01:34:00 PM
DVD's only please...
My son is a Combat Engineer with the 1/6 Marines in  southern Afghanistan. Yesterday i got my first phone call from  him.
As you would expect its not easy knowing where he is and not knowing how he's doing most of the time. He sounded good and said they were really layin it to'em, although  if you watch the news you'd think it was all done over there...whatever...anyways.....
I asked him for anything he wanted me to send and the only thing he wanted, besides unlimited amounts of deer jerky, was hunting DVD's.

If anyone has  any laying around you dont watch anymore I'd be glad to have them. Looking for big game with any kind of weapon.

I know how giving the gang is, so im sure i will be bombarded, but I'm thinkin 20-30 dvd's would more than enough.

Any help is so appreciated.
Thank You

FOR ALL WHO RESPONDED IN THE FIRST TWO PAGES

PLEASE CHECK ON PAGE TWO FOR MY ADDRESS.

me as well,  I was over in the middle east during the first go around and know first hand how rough the going can get.  God bless your son for doing a job many others would not for the freedom that so many take for granted.  I am sure we can rustle up some kill shots around here to send em.

Ask and ye shall receive.  PM your address, I have some M.A.D. tapes that I have been thinking about selling but your request is a much better use for them.  Happy to send them!  Let the man know how much we appreciate what he is doing!

I will GLADLY send you one in Buddy's name once I have an address.

One more note, you are getting alot of response to your request (I had no doubt when I read it you would) you might want to add the titles people are commiting to send to you to your original post to avoid getting duplicates. Just a thought!

I think with your respones so far this will be plenty. I will email or PM my addy to everyone above...thank you!

So. .  yet another example of the kinda people we have here.  

Someone asks for some assistance. .  for a good cause. .  and in 4 hours or less he is sayin     "whoa got enough".

Pretty  slick place huh !  

Nearly any question you have will be answered here(OK, sometimes it will be answered 499 times, each answer different. . ) and all of the answers are well meant.  

Even when we get a hot topic and we. . . ahem. .  "argue"  it is like we are sitting around the fire with a beer in hand and telling it like we think, but not being mean or disrespectful.

Thanks folks

Thanks to everybody!

He has the oppurtunity to use his lap top to wtach dvd's when he isnt on patrol and i promise this will mean alot to him.

He told me before he left that  he was really worried the most about missing deer season this year.

You guys are great...
