Glad you like it Jerry, I haven't given too many of those coins away. Like I said the knife won't be the most expensive one in your collection, but I believe what it represents is priceless. Display it well Marine.

Congratulations Jerry, that is awesome. And Good on you David for your thoughtfulness!!jerryd6818 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 25, 2020 10:25 pm Senior Chief David (dir110) just blew me out of the water. I received a PM request from him for my mailing address with the comment that he had a little something for me. I just figured it was a piece of Marine Corps ephemera or something. NOT!!! He went all in. It's a large Barlow with the Viet Nam service ribbon handles but wait there's more. He then went over the top and sent one of his challenge coins. My emotions are all over the place. I'm flabbergasted. I'm tickled pink. My chest is swelling up that he would think I'm worthy of all of this. Once again I've run out of words to describe this experience. Thank you Senior Chief. You're really something.
Is this not just the best bomb an old Marine could get?

Re: BOMBS AWAY!!! THE UN-OFFICIAL OFFICIAL BOMB THREAD
Just when I thought it was safe to go back in the water, Ivoryman hit me with yet another fusillade out of the clear blue sky that has me dazed and in a state of total SHOCK & AWE!!
Clearly, I-man has me pegged; he knows exactly what makes me go weak in the knees.
Looks like it's time for me to raise the white flag...I surrender!!
Check out these two fine beauties he dropped on me without any warning whatsoever: a super sweeeeet little IVORY Cattaraugus Swell Center Jack and a Smooth White Bone Case 6254WH Wharncliffe Trapper.
Knock me over with a feather because I don't know what to say...I'm speechless...overjoyed and thrilled...but totally speechless.
Thank You, Ivoryman...You definitely DA MAN! I am not worthy.
And then, as if that weren't already enough...another low pass over the target and BOOM!! my fate is sealed.
Thank You and Thank You again, Ivoryman...you really outdid yourself on this epic bombing run. Truly one for the ages.

Re: BOMBS AWAY!!! THE UN-OFFICIAL OFFICIAL BOMB THREAD
I'M HIT!
A DRIVE-BY BOMBING BY SCOTT!! (well, kinda sorta a drive-by. He does say he came racing in ) I don't know how he got hold of my address so I never saw it coming.
The coffee scoop is beautiful, a true piece of art, and will used with pride every morning.
The Funny Car will get a space in my parking lot (once I finish getting it built!).
And the knife will take up residence on my desk, at the ready for any task that may be in need of a sharp edge.
Scott, thank you. I really appreciate your thoughtfulness. I'm a blessed man.
