I received this note from Amazon.com the other day
Greetings,
I bought “The Art of Surfcasting with Lure” from Amazon but Mr Zeno Hromin
refunded my money because I am serving our country in Southwest Asia.
I would like to send him a personal thank you for supporting the troops.
If he will not mind. can I have an address to send it to him. Thank you
for your time & assistance.
Sincerely,
Vince Miralles
What Vince does not know is that he does not need to thank us, we should be thanking HIM for everything he does so we can enjoy our freedom at home. I think I can speak for all Surfcaster’s Journal readers in wishing Vince safe stay abroad and safe return home to his family.
It turns out, Vince if from Jersey City, NJ
He likes to cast his line in Hudson River, off Liberty State Park and downtown Exchange Place to catch stripers, blues and fluke.
These days Vince is in Afghanistan, and on his down time he enjoys a good cup of coffee
and a good book 🙂

Get home safe, there’s fish waiting for you.
As the proud father of a marine a big thank you goes out! I cant wait too hit the beach with him again. Its easy for the public too forget what all the branches of the service have been doing for a long time now. Semper fi too all !!
↓My fellow surfcasters,
I cannot thank you enough for kind words & support.
I will be the first one to tell you that I am not a hero.
But I have the privilege & honor to take care of our wounded heroes
as a mobilized Navy reservist nurse working in the NATO hospital here.
I am still proud of serving our country for 27 years,
also prior service w/ the USMC & NJ Army Guard.
Once again thank you for your support of our troops everywhere.
God Bless America!
Sincerely,
↓Vince MIralles
Thank him for his service and the service of all our men and women abroad.
