3 more days gang
Thanks for dropping the pick Beence ( I'd really like to know where that name came from, a panga perhaps ? )

Let's light this up kids and show our Troops how much they mean to us and get 1 great Harnell blank to customize to the way you see fit.
All bids are available on this thread, and no phone calls or pm's will be accepeted as bids and all monies will be used to take the troops out for a good time on the water ( no bars dammit ! )

Many,many thanks to kerncat and karl for all the hard work that goes into this kind of endeavour.When you make military wages its hard to scrape up 100-200 bucks to go fishing,its very nice to not have to worry about anything but having a good time for one day.THANK YOU MARINES,KARL AND KERNCAT.
