On 08/06/2011, a U.S. CH-47 Chinook helicopter was shot down while transporting a quick reaction force attempting to reinforce an engaged unit of Army Rangers in Wardak province, Afghanistan. The resulting crash killed all 38 people on board: 25 American Special Operations personnel, 5 U.S. Army National Guard/Army Reserve crewmen, 7 Afghan commandos, and 1 Afghan interpreter, as well as a US military working dog. It is considered the worst loss of US military life in a single incident in the Afghan Campaign and the greatest single loss of life ever suffered by the USSOCOM community in its 24-year history. A source from the Navy Special Warfare community described the reaction as “shock and disbelief. There’s no precedent for this. It’s the worst day in our history by a mile.” We honor the loss of our teammates and continue to pray for their families.
May we continue to say their names and never forget their sacrifice.“Long live the brotherhood”
Two scoops per cup. That is the BoneFrog standard. Here is what that means for your household.
| Drinkers | 12 oz | 2 lb | 5 lb | Best choice |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 person | 7 days | 3 weeks | 7 weeks | 12 oz, weekly |
| 2 people | 3 to 4 days | 10 days | 3.5 weeks | 2 lb, every 2 weeks |
| 3 people | 2 to 3 days | 7 days | 2.5 weeks | 5 lb, every 3 weeks |
| 4 or more | 2 days | 4 to 5 days | 12 days | 5 lb, every 2 weeks |
A 12 oz bag lasts about one week. Subscribe to 1 bag every week, or 2 bags every 2 weeks to keep a buffer on hand.
Step up to the 2 lb for fewer deliveries. One 2 lb bag carries a single drinker through about 3 weeks.
Two people at 3 cups each: go to the 2 lb on a 2-week subscription. One person, fewer deliveries: 5 lb, every 6 weeks.
A 12 oz bag lasts about one week for one person at 3 cups a day. Two people go through it in 3 to 4 days.
Match your household to the table above, then subscribe at that interval. When in doubt, go up a size. Running low is the one problem coffee should never give you.
