Don't forget those who serve

Thursday, May 17 2007

Saturday, May 19 is Armed Forces Day. As "the surge" marches onward in Iraq, there's no time better than right now to remember and honor the brave men and women who are currently serving over there, in Afghanistan, and numerous other hot spots around the world. For many of the troops, one of the few luxuries they have is the opportunity to enjoy some good premium cigars. Cigars.about.com is currently sponsoring a "Cigars for Troops" program. To learn how you can participate, please read Gary Manelski's column "Cigars to Salute the Armed Forces." Don't forget about Memorial Day next week, and Veteran's Day, which will be honored later this year in November. £
