I was so impressed upon walking through the door of GI Joe's Army & Navy Store. I have gotten to know Chuck and Diane and they are always helpful. The owner, Wayne, is often walking around talking with veterans and working on the window displays. This man has a wealth of knowledge regarding military surplus. He has taken great pride in building that business from the ground up and it shows.\r
\r
I began my journey walking past the cash register and into the aisle that has thousands of military patches, decals, coffee mugs and military pins. \r
\r
I love that they carry military Christmas ornaments. My father was in the Army and we hang our ornament year after year in rememberance for the time he served.\r
\r
As I follow the yellow arrows towards the back of the store, I sort through the winter hats and military embroidered baseball caps. I love the Dri-Duck sweatshirts and coats, Magnum and Condor boots that they offer. \r
\r
The amazing memorabilia that adorns the store throughout brings about emotions while entertaining me much like at a museum. \r
\r
The custom made dog tags, air soft guns, posters, flags, camping gear and even cute women's underwear are all reasons why I shop here. \r

No matter what time of year, GI Joe's is a place I go to shop for quality items. I always feel a little sentimental when I leave and like in some way, I am showing my patriotism by shopping here.
