With Veterans Day approaching this coming Friday, we thought to bring you closer to the history of cigars in military. Cigars have long had connections to the military, with generals, troops and government leaders known to enjoy a cigar or two. Many famous presidents, generals and tacticians have been cigar enthusiasts across the generations
Gen. Patton commanded the U.S. Seventh Army during WW II It was rare to see Patton without a Cuban cigar in his mouth and if you didn’t, it was because he was chomping on his legendary corn cob pipe purchased from a Missouri cigar shop

The 18th President of the United States, Ulysses S. Grant, was the Union general during the Civil War. 
Known for his love of cigars, Grant is reported to have smoked around 20 cigars a day. It was revealed that he had over 20 humidors in his home.

Richard Overton is a bit of a legend, as he was the oldest verified surviving US World War II veteran and oldest man in the United States! He died in 2018 at the age of 112 years.He began smoking cigars in 1924, at the age of 18 and claims to have smoked around 12 a day – even when he was over 100! 

There are several organisations that promote smoking of a cigar within the military. Cigar for warriors to name one. US service members can request to receive a shipment of between 30 and 50 cigars. The cigars are funded by donations from charity events and from premium cigar companies. 

Operation Deployed or The Tali-Banned Cigar Aficionado Club had to be mentioned too.
