Beware of Counterfeit AFTER BATTERY T- Shirts
2. It was reported in the Wall Street Journal yesterday that there was a rash of counterfeit AFTER BATTERY t- shirts flooding the market. Our copyright lawyers have warned us of this since the shirts were selling so high on E-Bay. They were up to $200.00 today. But men we as always are one step ahead of them. Every one of our shirts has a micro computer chip sewn in the color. So if you bought it from us you are protected. But if you bought one on E Bay and you are not sure if it’s genuine then you may bring it to us FREE of charge and we will scan it for you for a nominal fee of $18.00. If it is counterfeit we will destroy the shirt FREE and give you a brand new genuine shirt for the low low price of $18.00 even though you paid $200.00 for it.$36.00 FOR A $200.00 COUNTERFEIT SHIRT. Not a bad deal. OUR CUSTOMERS ALWAYS COME FIRST!!!
The Hats and shirts that you ordered are in. I will have them at this Wednesday AFTER BATTERY SOCIAL or if you can’t make that then I will bring them to the monthly meeting. I have reordered both shirts and hats. I hope everybody gets one that wants one. So far I have only sold 70 to our base of over 300 members all the rest have been going to other bases. I absolutely have to cut off the order at 1000. I can’t sell these as limited edition collector’s items if I don’t. I turned down an order just this morning from Microsoft for 10,000 shirts. They wanted to give one away with each copy of Vista. Men I am trying to give everybody a shot at getting one but time is running out. Don’t you be the one that goes to the national convention without one and be embarrassed when you see all the other bases wearing one. Remember we take cash , your check, or the easy pay way of send us your pin# hehe. We are always gentle. I still have some small t-shirts for those that want to buy one for a grandchild. I can still order but I must warn you that the cut off is looming.
3. We still have the red and white 50 cent beer cooler. Take advantage of this special. We may also do another “Manager’s Special “ soon

2.INFO ON OLD SALTS PIG ROAST IN MYSTIC, CT. ON 1 AUGUST 2008
I think this is the 18th roast that they have had. It started out years back with a bunch of Torpedo men putting it on but it has grown into a large gathering of Submarine Sailors over a period of time. Last year they had some come from the Canadian Submarine Force. There are 7 of us that I know of that are going to attend. We are looking for more to go with us. We are leaving on July 29 and driving. One is flying and one is taking his RV. We are staying at the Hyatt in Mystic. The room rate is $98.00/night. Government rate. If we get more to go we will take another vehicle. We are leaving to come home on August 4th. If you want more info let me know and I will email it to you.
