Famous Smoke Shop proudly supports our soldiers with Cigars for Troops. We recently deployed a care package to Kandahar, Afghanistan, where it was received and distributed by Capt. Robert Hughs. Here is his "Thank You" note, along with some pictures he sent.

Capt. Robert Hughs writes, "Thank you for the cigars, from the many teams in Kandahar, Afghanistan: Army, Air Force, Navy and Afghans. We appreciate the good smokes!"

Capt Hughs, an Afghan Police Officer and Maj Diaz enjoy some good smokes while drinking Chai.

After a rigorous day with the combat medics, Maj Diaz and Capt B take time to enjoy some primo smokes.

How high was the stress level this day?  Not high enough to ruin the enjoyment of a good smoke!

    Classy, what an excellent gesture Famous Smoke! As a recently retired Navy vet I remember those days, decompressing with a good cigar and everyone back together safely. Keep up the support, what a great way to boost morale!! Go USA!!!!
