What a great program you all have here at Napier. The host group treated us like family from the get-go. The staff is amazing here, shout out to Lance who got my binoculars that I left in the field, I know it wasn’t an easy task. Thank you WWIA. About seven years ago I was in a bad place in my life and was able to go to Alabama for a fishing trip and it was life-changing to see that there are others out there that take care of our purple heart veterans. Both Jakes and Hank were the best guides here and Jake Hawk gave us the shirt off his back to accommodate us at his house. I got to spend a few days sitting in the blind with him and got to know him. Jake, I appreciate what you do. Semper Fi.
