And rather quick I might add! He posted at 10:20something and he has what he needs around 200. That is damn fast and I am glad that he was able to keep his blade. My hat is off to all who contributed:thumbup:

leopardprey:thumbdn::thumbdn: you are a tool and had no business with that kind of attitude here in this thread:mad:

Just read through this whole thread and gotta say to leopardprey- Appreciation and sincerity dont need verification. Sometimes you just gotta trust.

You could always post a rough draft of what you want to say and the rest of the guys here can "proof" read it for you before you officially post it as a reply to leopard. :D

That's not a bad idea :D Maybe after I've had a few drinks. This is probably not the best place to ask, but is it too early to start drinking?
 
Man, you guys are somethin' else!:thumbup: I've never seen anything quite like this!
 
Man, I came late to the party, does he have enough? is this still going on and all U guys that supported him and other brothers and sister soldiers are to be highly commended!! :thumbup:

You all see my sig. line about my brothers and sisters in harms way. That carry's not only from forum to forum, but true to my heart.

I am proud as all hell to be a member of this fantastic HOG family.

If that soldier or another needs help, why shouldn't we help. With out there help, we'd have $hit!

Thank U and God Bless the men and women in our beloved Armed Forces!:thumbup:

Hey PRO!

After I reading the post by leopardprey, I feel my integrity is in question. Hell I feel like the hunted now. If you want to post my last e-mail with the pictures to the forum, please do so. I will be willing to refund every cent to the GOOD PEOPLE of this forum. I was going to do some type of fund raiser with the BATAC, but it has my Team's logo on it and other Team's have their own logo's so I know it would not flush. I was trying to sale the knife, I say again SALE. This guy has really pissed me off and after the rest of the guys read it I'm quite sure they will feel the same. This is not an easy place to be. The fighting part really sucks, but like I said before when you see what the war has caused to the children that have no reasonability with what's happened here that is really EMBRACING THE SUCK!

Thanks for you support,

Hey man don't worry about him. You have the support of all of us here. Let him think what he wants to. Trust me he will be the one who will be hunted here.
 
Personally having served in Afghan I know how little debts can creep up on you while your mind is on other more life threatening things. Sometimes all you need is a little financial breathing room. As regards good rates of pay thats debatable, I was on the same wage as an office worker when I was over there and had to pay tax on every penny. It can't be easy for recondo4u deciding to sell his knife and it was others that offered to donate money.
I like to think i'm not so gullible to be fooled by a conman. Bottom line, give if you want to, don't if you don't. Regardless don't put out negative opinions on serving troops.
recondo4u if you bump into any Royal Marines over there give them a thumbs up for me.
 
I'll post the contents of the email if you want, but as far as I am concerned you don't have to prove anything. Your call.

Recondo is here all the time and is one of us,
We take care of our own here:thumbup::thumbup:

Personnally, I do not buy it. If the guys want to sell his knife and you want to buy, then by all means buy. But, just giving a guy you do not know at all money, for what purposes or why he needs it, while the thoughts and intentions are good, is not a good idea IMHO. Soldiers make good money in Afghanistan. Tax Free, combat pay, bonuses, etc. I hardly see $325 making a significant difference. Before I would just hand out money, find out why he needs it so desperately. Lost the money in a poker game? R and R in Bangkok? or wife needs money for diapers and rent? What is his rank? Etc... Maybe he just does not like the knife and wants to sell it. Many soldiers have several knifes and some are kept in their footlockers and "travel" around with them and then later some are sold. I have seen a lot of "Special" knives with logos and unit knives sold by other soldiers. My point is, if the knife is really special to him, for only $325 he would find a way to keep it.

I guess I need to defend myself here, just as my TEAM and the rest of us over paid service members are doing here so you can have your opinion, and the freedom to speak it. First off I was trying to SALE the knife, I never asked anyone to donate money for my R&R and the 5 bottle's of single malt I drank in Bangkok not to mention the $325 dollars I lost in that poker game...... I got to go home in October for 15 damn days, how many time have you seen you family or friends this week and the word wife is one better left out of your post. Let me tell you about my wife, she spent Christmas at home with my 4 children one of witch is a special needs child alone. She has also been at home without me for the last 11 1/2 months and I still have 4 more to go, if I make it home. I can't even start to tell you how many time she has e-mailed me with things that have gone wrong at home that I can do nothing about. I just wish you could feel my gut when she e-mails me to tell me that my 8 year daughter came to her crying telling her "I MISS MY DADDY" I hurts man. My rank is non of your concern, but if you must know I just made SGT, and believe me I am rolling in the cash! I was selling the BATAC because I can't tap my home funds. Remember I still have a house payment 2 car payments, insurance, utilities and the trips to the grocery store and that's just basic stuff. MAN your really suck! I will tell the GOOD PEOPLE HERE THAT I AM WILLING TO REFUND EVERY CENT IF MY INTEGRITY IS IN QUESTION! We are trying to raise enough money to put a damn roof that want leak on a mud hut for a family here. Now the secrets out! Sorry to all you good HOG's out there for my rant. I had to say something.

recondo4u: Bro, as others have stated, it's not worth the time. YOUR integrity is not in question by us nor is your "email" regarding this needed. Leopardprey just seems to have issues with Busse Combat and those who use their knives. You and your team kick some a$$. And thanks again for what you guys are doing. :thumbup::thumbup:
