Surprise Package (more pics added, 07/04/2012)
« on: July 03, 2012, 08:18:00 PM »
Yesterday I received a surprise package from Guy Taylor of CA, "Grey Taylor" on here as a fellow Trad Gang member. Inside the box was this handsome set of 6 hand-crafted wood arrows that he made to surprise me with. He said (basically) for my service to our country and my devotion to trad archery. They are designed, made and decorated by Guy. Done in Marine colors of Black, Red, & Gold; with a Korean and Viet Nam service ribbon on the shaft and a Marine emblem between those. I will cherish these professionally made, artistic beauties for as long as the good Lord allows. Thank you a thousand times over, Guy.

Thank you and you're welcome.

Guy also said this that I would like to share:

"Bernie, I can't make arrows for every deserving veteran so I hope you will accept these as my personal thanks to you, and care for them as my thanks to every service member who has served our country."

It is my humble pleasure and honor to be chosen to do just that. Bless them all, bless us all.

THAT is what makes this site so great.  Folks who give unselfishly of themselves just to help others.  Guy... you are a true gentleman and an invaluable asset to mankind.
Thanks for your service, Marine!!!
