Military Branch: US Army

Event Name: Lake Erie Trophy Walleye

To say that I had a great time would be an understatement. This trip went far beyond any expectations that I had. The fishing was great, the food was amazing, but the best part was the group of people that I met. 10 years after receiving my Purple heart I find myself still amazed by the showing of love and support. The WWIA organization is something I can say I am proud to be a part of. Thank you so much for everything you’ve done for me this weekend and for the support of our wounded veterans from all wars fought!
