fishhard Posted August 28, 2008 Posted August 28, 2008 I know this has nothing to do with catching fish, but it's about catching a heck of a guy. I am in afghanistan, and I have been in contact with rondef, lately, the guy is 100% awesome. Over the last few days he managed to tip a canoe(sorry), lose equipment, venture into a beaver dam, use a big magnet to find equipment, be a husband and a family man, and get this, record fishing shows and burn them on dvds to send to me in afghanistan, just awesome. These dvd's will surely make me and my guys time over here better, I salute you rondef, for being a model citizen. All who read this can you please help me out by doing the same. Thanks SGT Shannon Peters Quote
rondef Posted August 28, 2008 Posted August 28, 2008 Shannon, thank you but what I did is no big deal. You guys are putting your lives in harms way day after day and you guys deserve to receive support from us back home. You guys are all heroes in my book and it was an HONOR to do this for you and your unit. Enjoy the DVDs, magazines and snacks. If there is anything you guys need to help make life over in the sandbox more tolerable just let me know. Ron Quote

Joe Shafer Quote
Daniel My Brother Posted August 29, 2008 Posted August 29, 2008 Rondef, You're raising the bar and making us all look better. You the man. Dan Quote
Super User fishinfiend Posted August 29, 2008 Super User Posted August 29, 2008 In the tune of the budlight commercials...... We salute you Mr. rage toad throwin, bass catchin, hooking up soldier guy ;D Ron, you seem like a heck of a guy!! Thank you for your service SGT Peters Quote
fishhard Posted August 29, 2008 Author Posted August 29, 2008 A few things, first off SGT Shafer, well will definitely fish ft.campbell dry, along with joey(bassinsoldier), second on the plate, what we do as soldiers, we understand and execute with no questions, it is a duty and we accept it with selfless service. You guys that support us are our heroes because we realise that you could turn your back to us, but the things you are doing makes us fight harder to protect the fact that their are model americans that have our back. Keeping america, america right. Anyway let me get off my soapbox and just say thanks to all, especially rondef and vokol. P.S. I just purchased some of those mattlures that I have been reading about on this site, and I am even more pumped, so in two days, i got a box full of dvd's, snacks, and some mattlures, I am to excited to be at combat ;D Quote
fishhard Posted August 29, 2008 Author Posted August 29, 2008 WAIT A MINUTE SGT SHAFER, YOU ARE JOEY, DID YOU GET PROMOTED ON ME, I THOUGHT I WAS READING A MESSAGE FROM BASSINSERGEANT, SEE YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE SMART TO GO TO WAR , JUST KIDDING, BUT JOEY YOU THREW ME A CURVE BALL MAN. Quote
Low_Budget_Hooker Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 SGT Peters- Any other specific requests? Anything we can facilitate for you guys, let us know, we got lots of "resources" here. Hang tough guys. Quote
