So I blew up a cup of Coffee all over the 1st SGT. once. Out in the field for a week. Crappy Fall weather cold and rainy. Been running around on the tracks all day. It had gotten dark and we stopped. We had been firing blanks from the 50 all day. Reached under the 50 and grabbed a couple of empty shells. Put my canteen cup on top and stuck a heat tab under it. Was heating up some coffee when Top walked up. Apparently one of the blanks was still live. Just as he asked if the coffee was ready it blew up and dumped the whole cup all over him. I thought I was in so much shit, but he just said thanks and walked away.

Just wondering if and when you might be looking to open a place in NM, I read an article about you a few months ago and have been talking you up and there are a lot of excited Vets (and supporters) here in Albuquerque. I have tried the other guys and decided they want too much money for something I found barely drinkable (my opinion) and have not been back since

SFC Hafer! My congratulations to you as well! If you are not already doing so, please ensure the Vets are getting PTAC Certification. Every major city has a PTAC "Procurement & Technical Assistance Center" and guides the veteran's into SBA 8(a) Set-Aside Government Contracts. 20% of all Federal State & Local government contracts must include disadvantaged groups: Minorities: Female: Handicapped; Veterans, etc. Every installation including airports and Gov't buildings have coffee shops! Your program is perfectly suited to get in on that business! SDVOSB Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses are a high priority! Thanks for all you do!
