Take A Soldier Fishing.....show them you care
« on: April 06, 2010, 09:49:28 AM »
Just a reminder that you can show your appreciation to our Men and Women in Uniform by taking them out fishing for a day.

You do not have to be a Captain or Run a boat for hire.

Go to www.takeasoldierfishing.org and put a post up that you are willing to take some of our brave warriors out for a day.

Believe me you will not regret it and be forever thankfull you did.

Every year we host 3-4 trips and I cannot tell you the emotion of our servicemen, nor can I ever express enough gratitude for what they do for us. slt

If you need help or have any questions give me a shout.

Awesome way to show Veterans you care. From my experience, we're extremely grateful to anyone who takes time and actually thinks about the troops in general. Being back from my second deployment for almost two years now, I dont hear anything about whats going on overseas now and it becomes disheartening (like does anyone realize 100,000 American lives are in Afghanistan fighting for Aghani Rights- not American Freedom). When mail trucks come in and random people from throughout the country send random items (notebooks, movies, hygeine items), it hits the soldier/sailor/marine inside. There are people that care, people that think of those fighting. And for those sending packages, taking veterans out fishing, or simply buying a service member a drink at the local bar: THANK YOU- it makes a huge difference, only those who've lived it, understand it.

And Post Script...
I'll literally and gladly work for free on any charter/party boat that offers this to troops.
