Thread: Pens for the Troops

Yeah but Eddie I think having a soft bed would be pretty good wouldn't it?

I made some bullet pens I sent off to Amos, I wonder if that is the one they are talking about? Put a smile on my face anyway.

I think I can speak for all or most when I say that we appreciate that our slight efforts are appreciated

cheers and enjoy a generally relaxed neighbourhood

Welcome home Eddy, no place like home.

I am sure I can think of some worthwhile activities to help you and the wife get used to it again.

Firstly you need to go to the shed and get coverd in woodshavings,
then hop into bed with out showering
then see what happens ..... should be just like old times.

Hello to all, thanks for the pens that have been sent in, haven't been too well these past two months and finally starting to fell a bit better;
Have sent one box of pens to Iraq, and one box to Afghanistan, via the authorized channels, I am sure the troops will be encouraged, looking at the TV and seeing the situation they are placed in makes me feel for them. Amos

To you guys, Woodenink, Pasho and Sundowner: This is the letter of appreciation that I received from the ships Captain along with a ship's cap for each of you. Thank you all very much for being involved.

Can you please put those photos in another format as I can not seem to see them due to my works computer security.

I can see other type of photos but not your.

I have done a pen to the troops in my own special way. I have a mate here inTownsville who is about to ship over for his third tour awat from Aust so I made him a pen out of a hard wood tomato stake. Came up real nice too but sorry I can not down load the photo (cursed work protocols!!!!)

Anyway I was not sure if there were any taboos in wishing blokes good luck ( like there is with actors so in saying break a leg etc).

Do you guys know of any taboos in relation to wishing a bloke good luck on a posting????

Cheers,

I really apprecicate that.

great letter
who made the pen that looks like a boat?

You could make a pen that looks like a warship but then the thread would be off topic in a turning section.

Not sure where you are coming from, I made a few with the ship's crest and Navy crest on them and the bullet pen. I do not remember a boat pen.
