Leaving Afghanistan soon

Post by Brian »

My Afghanistan tour is almost up.

Fellow Fox enthusiasts

My Afghanistan tour is almost up and I wanted to take this opportunity to thank those members of this board for their emails, packages and entertaining posts over the past 11 months.

I read the Fox Collectoss board everyday I had access to the internet.


It seems like it was yesterday that I left the US to come here. This will have been my fourth deployment; 3rd one for this war.

At least this time I picked up a few Sniders and a martini for my wall.

I will be home to enjoy my Foxes and this falls upcoming pat’ridge season in NY.

Thanks again for your support.

Brian, thank you again for your service to this great country and all of us. I look forward to meeting you at one of the Fox CA events, maybe at the Greenwich Show in January if not before. I agree with Paul, plenty of drumming here in PA this spring. Frank

Welcome back Brian! Thanks for your services and those with you also. I haven't heard from my grandson lately who is also over there. He is due out in March 2010. God Bless! Lee.

Brian: Be safe and it looks like you will still be overseas for the Vintagers, maybe 2010. Thanks for all your dedicated service.

Brian, I don't know if I have met you, but I think I met some of your shotguns at the Chantilly VA show after you had gone away. I hope you didn't sell everything. Bill Murphy

Hi Brian! I'm so glad to know that you are getting out of that place. I can't express how much I appreciate what you and our guys have done for us. Be super careful these last few days, and get out of there! If you ever have a chance to come to Tennessee, I would be delighted to entertain you. If the the quail hunting ever gets to a respectful level, maybe we could knock a few feathers. Your friend, Bryan E. Clary
