Elderly, Retired, Disabled PIF

Good Morning everyone, thank you for checking in! This PIF is for those who reside in the continental United States of America. This morning I am offering this PIF to those folks in our community who are disabled, retired, or elderly. If you fit into one of these categories, then you are eligible to receive this PIF. As qualifying criteria, I will ask that you restrict entries to those people who- are on Social Security, receive disability payments from an ex employer or the government, are currently of retirement age (60 years old) and actually retired, are elderly, or disabled veterans or disabled First Responders.
I'm sorry I can't include any non-CONUS entry's , the cost of postage is prohibitive. I hope our non-CONUS members can forgive me.
So here's the deal folks, if you meet the qualifying criteria, then simply state I'm in, and tell us which category you belong in. I.E. - "retired", "disabled", or whatever. Disabled Veterans of the US military, and disabled First Responders , will receive 1 extra entry each person.
I will determine a winner by having my lovely wife draw a names from my old patrol cap on Friday 5 May 2017 at around 12:00pm noon.
Now, for the prize,-
This PIF is to gift this 1916 Gillette Single Ring set.







It needs to be polished, and re-cleaned before I send it out, but other than that, the teeth all seem straight, I can't see well enough to tell if there are any cracks in the barrel, but I don't think there are any. The leather covering is almost 100 percent intact, the front snap and flap are also present and intact. And the lid is still held on by the leather in the rear of the case.
I would like to conclude this thread, by stating that I appreciate the comradeship and friendship I have received here, and I wish all entrants good luck.

I'm in.
I thought about not being in.
I'm a retired/ disabled LEO. I think that meets your qualifications.
The real deciding factor for me was to have a razor you so meticulously and lovingly put together. Your collection is awesome, and so beautifully displayed. Your restoration, preservation, and maintenance skills are top notch. I would love to have one of your projects in my collection. Thank you for the opportunity.

 

Thank you David! Your kind words are much appreciated. I don't mean to sound dumb, but what category does LEO fall in? Military? Or First Responer? I ask so I can give you your extra entry for the category you qualify for. (I would like to know anyway).

 

Fantastic idea for a PIF and very generous. Not in.

LEO is law enforcement officer.

I was a law enforcement officer for my professional career. We were trained first responders.

 

Thank you lightcs1776! I appreciate the input.

 

Thank you David, and thank you for your service to our countrymen. I tried to get into law enforcement when I returned home from the Army. I got on with PublicSafety here in Omaha, but transferred to public works right away. It was appearant right away that I wasn't cut out to be a Police Officer. You fellows have my complete respect. God Bless You David!

 

Very nice PIF Alan. Not in.

 

Wow! Another incredibly generous PIF from a true gentleman.

As I meet none of the criteria, though, I am not in.

 

Ty, very much.

 

Thank you Joseph, and John.

 

Fantastic PIF!!

 

Thanks!

 

Great PIF, not in. Congratulations to those that made it to retirement, and thanks go to all the veterans and retired/disabled first responders.

 

Not in, but a fabulous PIF for some well deserved contenders.

 

Very nice pif. I'll take a shot. Almost elderly (69) and retired on SS.

 

Your in!

 

Thanks folks!

 

How about Worker's Compensation for life due to a fall, injuring the back, head and shoulders. Also nerve damage from fall on back affecting arms and legs. If so, I'm in.
