2013
Military Branch: US Army
Event Name: Lake Erie Trophy Walleye
We drove from PA to the state of Ohio. Ashtabula is located in Northeastern part of Ohio. It didn’t take long to realize that it is a friendly and welcoming town. I met up with four other Purple Heart recipients from Kentucky, Ohio and North Carolina. What a great group of fellows. We met our captains for the upcoming fishing weekend. The town welcomed us with a flag waving experience. The fishing was great! The host was wonderful. It was a weekend that I will never forget. Thank you, Wounded Warriors in Action.
