Sunday we honored 10 wounded warriors with a fishing trip and steak fry. These valiant men were wounded in battle and Afghanistan. There were also 2 women soldiers that had been injured during the Iraq campaign.
We were out on Hand in Hand Outdoors big pontoon, Freedoms Dream for 4 hours in the morning with very slow fishing where it had been very good the day before, also when with wounded warriors.
Around noon we returned to the Provo Boat Harbor for an afternoon steak fry and rides on Cross Marines big Airboat and enjoying the singing and guitar playing of Kolby Gleave.
Next week on Wed I will return to take a boat full of WWII veterans from the Payson veterans Home. I hope the fishing improves when the crowds go away. God bless our veterans.

I just wanted to say that its great what you are doing for these veterans. I'm sure for some, me included, getting out and fishing helps me keep my mind off of things. I saw the pontoon out there today coming back in the Provo boat harbor. I was the guythat wwhipped out a quick salute. Once again thank you! Semper Fi!

Thanks fmrusmc
First thank you for your service to our country.

The WWII veterans aboard were very touched by your salute. It was great and we all thank you. They are incredible men whose generation is rapidly disappearing.

These guys are from the Payson Vets home and their average age is probably 88 to 90, What a privilege it is to spend a day with them fishing..
We enjoyed a great morning on the lake catching 7 channels and that many mudcats as well.
Semper Fi Brother and thank you again for taking the time to show your respect for these old warriors.
