Be Well!

Well,
At least I got a response.....
It appears that bidding will begin April 14th.
Key word here, my Friends,

"Patience."

When all is said and done, I won't get paid until sometime in June!
Don't know 'bout y'all, but,
I got lots of experience of patience.
Ever sit in a frozen bunker?
The snow falls heavily.
Merry Christmas my fellow Americans!
All night? Dang!
And then the next night?
Yeah, more snow.....
Again and again.......
Waiting for a new mission.....
In a Foreign land?
Armed to the teeth?
Well, I only had 3 mags of 30 rounds each of .223 auto.
After that, I was on my own......
Watching.
Waiting.
For hours.....
Shivering to stay awake.
Yeah.
I am an American Veteran.
I got me some patience.
It was a hard lesson learned.
I still feel the pain of my training.

Ever laugh while tears flowed from your eyes?


I have.
And I led my Brothers...
As a Leader.
I still lead my Brothers even today.....
Because I will never leave a Brother behind.

Scott

And, I will always love America. Dig?

Best,

Scott

And, I will always love America. Dig?

I’m with you on that brother!!!

Me, over 40 years ago, when my “Stick” pinned me the day I earned my Gold Jump Wings. This was the first “Pound”, by my Rigger, up against a concrete wall in the para-loft.
I later went to Rigger School myself at Ft. Lee. (Gotta Love those socks pulled up😂)

My guess will be….🤔….$9200.00. Although my Sincere wish is anything over $20,000.00+

Good Luck Brother!!

I “Dig” and respect you!

Ah!

I salute your Service, Brother!
------

I remember gaining rank "in country."
In Germany.
Late 1977. Or was it early '78?

Anywho,
After formation, a "gauntlet line" formed that I had to pass through.
On either side were my fellow Battalion Company Brothers.
Waiting to punch me in my upper arms.
Left, right.
Sometimes both sides at the same time....

After making it to the end of the line,
There stood the BIGGEST SOB of them all;
With a roll of quarters wrapped only in the grip of his massive fist.
His name was Mike King.
We all called him "Geek."

I closed my eyes and waited for the punch......
He drew back and delivered a painful blow!
To my upper left thigh.
With his knee!
OH! DAMN!
"Medic! Man Down!"

I couldn't wait till HE made next rank!
I got something for him!
(Funny that he never did make rank while I was there....)

Only 2 weeks later, I was demoted and lost that promotion.
Also facing a possible Article 15.
Something about yelling out my barracks window, "Top Sucks!"
My Platoon Sgt., SFC Mayfield, fought for me and I got my rank back.
He merely asked Top if my assertion was true.....

Shortly after, I was assigned to a 3/71st Company Special Forces unit.
During that time I was injured and received an Honorable Discharge.
Details are classified to this day as I had a high security clearance.
Those records are not even available to Congressional members.
Without my authorization.
Or a Literal Act of Congress.
I have personally met with two different Congressmen and have given them both
permission to access my Military Records, concerning VA benefits.
-----

America's Veterans are to be Saluted,
Even if you really don't know what they did to serve and keep America Free.
And, I still serve America and my Brothers even today.

Best,

Scott

Thanks, Peyton for forcing me learn of "Spread Sheets" and thus adding to my education!
I'm now less "Computer Stupid."
Perhaps an old dog CAN learn new tricks.....

I can’t wait till next weekend, Susan and I are planning on meeting in person at the coin show in Las Vegas. Our local coin club is co-sponsoring it’s 60th annual show and I’ll be voluntering at the show. I want to pick her brain on these types of auctions, strategy and future of these rarity’s in the eyes of auction houses.

I’m sure your’s will go much higher then the low guess above!!!

Nice Spreadsheet!!!

Take care!!!

Mention me and give her my best wishes!

Also, offer her a Charter Membership to Treasurenet.
I'll pay......
Have her contact me.
However, she is not eligible for winning my Contest.
But, still.... what would her guess be?
The World anxiously awaits her reply.....
Don't you?
I have full respect for Snoopydoo.
But.....
Perhaps Susan's guess should not be mentioned.....
And your association should disqualify you.
I am considering this situation....
A new rule concerning "Association of the Seller?"
I will always run a "clean" contest.
You should expect no less.
Any winner will be a TRUE Winner!

I leave it up to the others whom have offered their guess.....
What say you?

Scott
