To all founders, donors, and those involved with Wounded Warriors in Action.<br>I am writing in great appreciation to this wonderful organization. Thank you so much for allowing myself, and fellow veterans on a hunting trip we will always remember at the Napier Hunt Club. I’m not sure there are enough words to thank everyone whom I had the pleasure of meeting, and those who made it possible for me to have this experience. The entire staff, from beginning to end, was warm, welcoming, and so kind and genuine to all of us. We were all so impressed with everything- from the facility and land, to the hard work and dedication of the guides, and the compassion in which we received from everyone. It was extremely fun, and an experience I will carry with me forever.<br>There aren’t many things that can keep my spirits up with everything that I have been through; from being deployed to Iraq and being injured in combat. I have daily struggles, physically and mentally, that make it hard to see any positives at times. I thought it important for you to know how much this time I spent with your organization impacted me. It helped me in ways you’ll never know; with relaxation, laughter, and the good times we were able to take part in, I felt as though my troubles were gone, if only for that weekend. So, for that, I thank you immensely. I greatly appreciate the opportunity given to me, and hope you know how much it meant to participate. I went home feeling better than I have in a very long time.<br>I have told everyone about Wounded Warriors in Action and my amazing time spent with you all, and how everyone truly went above and beyond for myself, and our fellow veterans. I just wanted you to know that what you do for Military Families truly means something, and it has a positive impact. My smile is definitely proof of that.
