Jerky to Iraq

By Jerky Jed

Everyone likes a good night’s sleep. But in the early morning hours of Sunday morning Jerky Jed could not sleep. The phone rings, being so curious as to who was calling at such a time. The other person on the line says he Billy from Iraq, the back ground noise of a long distance connection was evident. Billy says he’s in the Army and would like to have some beef jerky because he wants something from the United States that reminds him of home.

Now I have traveled abroad, but never to anything too close to Iraq. My guess is that in any town in the Middle East, convience stores are not too common. Maybe we should export American Laundries to China, and C-stores to the Middle East? Anyway back to my story about Billy. Billy was a kind, younger sounding person serving our country with his friends. We salute Billy’s efforts here at Jed’s Jerky.com and appreciate his interest in Jerky and Gourmet Snacks. If we can provide some uniquely American flavors to our fighting men and women we are doing our job, because without them the world would be a different place, a darker place in my view. So thank you for all that have served and are now serving! And thank you for the families that have loved ones that are serving! We hope Billy the best and a safe return home and all who serve with Billy! Perhaps we can get a blog entry from Billy soon, we will be sure to post for all, because we should never forget and always appreciate the folks in the United States Armed forces. Thank you for reading this blog, please feel free to post, as I would really like to hear your thoughts.
