    Well boys and girls I'm on my way to another trip in to that great Afghan desert for the next few months and will need something to help pass the time.
    So ya'll can start digging through all your unwanted HotRod mags and send them my way.
    Once I get settlend in and get my address established I will post it here for you to see. Any and all car/bike/truck and tattoo mags will help boost the morale of my team and hell me for that matter.
    So for now I will be sitting here in Shannon, Ireland, bellied up to the bar for one last pint and waiting for my plane to arrive.

    Thanks
    Viva

  5. Used to have a friend we called mole because he always had the deepest bunker.

    I won't have to dig very deep for magazines but you may learn something from the mole. Keep your head down I'll see what I got in my collection.

    The wife and I have had two different " Adopt a Soldiers" for the last few years. They both have returned home recently.
    We were just getting ready to look for another.
    Thank You for your service to our Great Country. It's people like you that keep it that way!

    Will be on the lookout for your address

    I have boxes of old mags.....I'll dig through and send ya some.
     
  17. I have sent about 12 boxes to the big sand box from other sites with addresses.
    I have at least 50 more.
    I don't mind sending them but after about the 10th box I was starting to wonder if you guys were even getting them. At $20 a box I just want to make sure you guys get them. I haven't seen anything that shows that you do receive them.
     
  18. Stay safe and thank you for what you are doing.

    Be safe and let me know how the Vanette 's coming. And remember.......In East Tennessee the drinks are on me! No soldier that comes into our club ever buys drinks.
    Love ya man.

    I have a tub of old Hot Rods, Car Craft and Motor Trend magazines from the late ’50 early ’60 a friend gave me (also a fellow Marine). I can’t think of a better home for them than with Marines “in Country”.

    Stay vigilant and come home safe.
