I would like to say thanks to Mike Howes, Bill Carnazzo and all the GBF members that participated in making the Wounded Veteran's event at the club a great success. I cannot thank those who participated enough for their help in the recovery process these vets are going through.   The changes we saw from the time they arrived until the time they left was dramatic.  The stories we heard and shared were overwhelming and difficult to listen without becoming emotional. At the dinner in Forest hill hosted by the American Legion and VFW being able to watch the vets from WWII, Korea & Viet Nam share stories was very moving.  The veterans all expressed their deep gratitude and appreciation in our welcoming them back and helping them in their recovery. 

Here is a link to Tenkara USA where Daniel posted the pictures he took.  http://picasaweb.google.com/TenkaraUSA/20091029Vets_HBP_Tenkara#
