As most of you already know I have been doing Pandemic Giveaways during this Corona Virus Pandemic. I have done 5 of them and they were open to everyone and every member no matter where you lived. As states begin to open up in some parts of the country and places around the world begin to open Pandemic Giveaway #5 will be the last one for the general population on the PCF. We are drawing the names tomorrow night for the 10 people who will play Omaha hi for the chance to win one of two All In Markers.

This one, Pandemic Giveaway #6, will be a little different. Recently I have fallen in love with Opera House Casino Chips and started collecting a few of them. I love the Holiday themed chips and got a bunch of them recently. I've collected the 4 Opera House Military Chips below and think they are very cool looking. I've seen them, had them in my hands, and now it is time to give them away. Memorial Day in the US is on Monday May 25th, 2020 so I'd like my last Pandemic Giveaway #6 to honor that day . Below left to right there is an Army Chip, Navy Chip, Air Force Chip, and lastly what I'll call the last chip a Marines Chip. These Chips will be only open to any Member of the PCF who serves in the Military Active Duty or had served in the Military in the past. This is not open just to people in the US as you could of served in any Branch of your country's Military like for example Canadian Army, Greek Navy, or Australian Air Force. If you served in any branch of the Military anywhere in the world (except North Korea) you are good in my book and good to enter. I'm not going to let people post just IN in the thread. So I don't just get random people entering what I will require is for you to post in this thread a picture of you in your Military Uniform and post which Branch of the Military you Serve/Served in. If you are outside the US then post which Country you served in also. Depending on which branch of the Military you are/were in will depend on which chip you will have a chance to Win. The top 5 people for each Branch will get chosen by randomizer to Play an Omaha Hi hand for a chance to win their Branch's Chip. If there are less than five there would be no need for randomizer. I will cover shipping for this one. Since I have specific requirements I thought I'd get this Giveaway started earlier. I will leave the Signups until Sunday May 17th, 2020 12PM EST. Let the Sign Ups Begin.

The members I can think of right of the bat that are in the Military are @Beaniman & @Vince Bustillo

P.S. If you want to be that person that enters this giveaway with not serving in the Military and has to post a fake picture so you can get a chip so be it. You have to live with yourself.

My buddy and I in the Army, sweet taste of freedom after finishing 2 years of service.

Edit: I served in Singapore where national service is compulsory for all healthy males.

I served in the USAF for 5 years. 1987 - 1992. I was a K9 Police Officer. Narcotics dog handler for most of it. There was nothing in the world like to work with a K9 partner. He always had your back.

I was stationed in Grand Forks ND, Kunsan Korea, and Minot ND. I also spent some time in Panama in 88 on temp assignment at Howard AFB when all that shit was going down. During that time I worked closely with the Marines on posts in the middle of the damn jungle. Talk about interesting lol.

We have some old school pictures somewhere. I'll have to wait until Colleen gets home to find out where.

Thanks for the give away.
 
Hi everyone the PIC you post does not to be an official pic or anything fancy just any proof you served. For those who don't have a PIC of yourself maybe you could send maybe a picture of your uniform with your name on it, a medal or something that proves you were in. Thanks. We have a couple of weeks before the deadline.

You've inspired me to sort through the attic and start scanning old pics into digital format!
