The Gracie Brush

This is the original Gracie, for whom I named Graydog's Gracie.

This is Graydog's Gracie. See a few posts below for a current shot of this beauty.
What's a Gracie Brush? It's a brush I won from @Graydog for naming his new puppy.
She just looked like a Gracie to me.
Who's eligible? All current Active Duty members and all Veteran members.
Rules
Must be Active Duty Military or a Veteran.
Any branch, Country, regular Military, Reserves, National Guard. Male or female.
Must join Foxhole Shavers Club
Post I'm in, in this thread, and tell us what country and branch of military you served in and what you do or did there.
If you don't follow the simple rules above, I won't bother to tell you, I just won't consider you for the win.

What do you get? Well, the Gracie Brush, of course. Horsehair knot, handle hand turned by our very own Graydog.
A vintage DE razor, probably a Gillette.
A nice selection of DE blades.
A soap, yet to be determined.
An Arko cream. You will have a choice from the few different ones I have.
A leather Dopp bag, used, in good condition.

Peek inside.

I'll end this on April 30.​

Are you in?

 

[edwinhmcbride]

I would love to be but I can not in good conscience. I have more than I need (including a gorgeous Graydog, the big one on the left) and anything more would just be greedy.

 

[captp]

Appreciate your honesty, Edwin. Beautiful brush there.

 

[Billski]

@captp Very Nice PIF,Grace 8 months old now

 

[Mcmen4my]

Very generous PIF. I, though, am "Not In". Back around Christmas time I won a PIF that @Graydog was doing where he was genourous enough to not only spin me my very own brush, but also through in a Gillette Open Comb. I still use them and have grown very fond of them. I know who ever wins this beauty will enjoy it! Thanks again for your very generous PIF!

I can't be in, but I wish I could. Greydog's legendary brushes are the epic stuff of legendary legends! This brush will be someone's go-to. Best of luck to all and well done, Captp.

Steam. 22,000shp main propulsion. Spent some time under repair in Sasebo, too, which is where I did my only stint of shore patrol. I've been to the top of Mt. Yamashita.
