This is the official thread for veteran and active duty military personnel to sign up for the giveaway. Please comment in the thread once only so that I will be able to use the number of entrants on Random.org to draw the winners.

More than one comment will disqualify entrant from winning and another winner will be chosen.

I will draw the winners on Veterans Day and announce them here in this thread.

I want to thank each and every one of your for your service. I saw something last year that said something like "They wore their camo so we could wear ours" and it really stuck with me, that is why I chose the one call to do with this. I grew up a teenager through the 80's when there were a lot of the Chuck Norris Missing in Action and Uncommon Valor type movies about those that are POW/MIA and though those may not have been the best movies in the world they really did make me realize there are those we will likely never know what happened to and they should be remembered. That is the reason for the second call.

I will try to add better pictures when I get the calls in. Oh by the way, I am not the person that purchased both calls, someone else here purchased one of them but wishes not to be named, thanks for helping me to do this.

I just got this information about the strikers that come with each call.

The POW call has a 2 pc. striker top is Padauck with a maple peg.

The other call has a Green mountain Camouflage laminate striker.

Sbbow contacted me and wanted to add to the giveaway. He is going to add 2 of his custom made lanyards to the giveaway, winners choice of color/colors and beads/feathers. I have added pictures to show his work though many of us know his work already. This will give us 4 winners. Thanks for adding to the pot Sbbow

Jeffwhitecustomcalls contacted me to add a very attractive Mora over Walnut short box. Thanks to him for adding to the giveaway.

I'm always amazed at the generosity of people (especially on forums such as this)! While I'm probably not worthy I'll add my name to this...US Army (reserves) 1996-2002.

Just bumping this up to show new items have been added. If this number comes up I will of course redraw.
