premium cigars and cigar accessories to U.S. soldiers stationed in combat zones and ·
long-term deployments all over the world.

While a cigar might sound like a luxury to someone. sitting at home watching football,
it can be a much needed mental break for those serving in a combat zone. It's also a
link to home. It is not unusual for us to receive requests from those serving overseas
that have no one back in the states sending them care packages. Having a social
support system not only helps soldiers during deployment, but will help them
transition back into civilian life. It is also more than just the act of receiving the care
package; it is creating good memories and bonding with your brothers and sisters in
arms. We have received e-mails and photos from hundreds of soldiers who will forever .... '·
now remember the cigars they smoked with those that they worked and fought beside
while serving so far away.

Operation: Cigars For Warriors has sent out over 650,000 cigars to deployed military
units since May of 2012. You can help by signing up to be an official collection point,
