Please know my group is hard up for everything, camo, misc equipment, we have no range finder, no spotting scope, no real fishing or hunting equipment. Being a new chapter, we have zip, nada, zero, zilch. If you could have less than zero, that would be us! ALL DONATIONS ARE TAX DEDUCTIBLE! If you have any doubts of my goals, please PM me and I will put you in contact with the regional VP I report to! Right now, it is all my personal gear getting used, I dont mind it, but would like to have stuff that can be passed around. I was able to get a military supplier of sandbags to donate 200. The goal being to build a blind that is wheel chair possible. If it is one thing the USMC tought me it was what to do with sandbags! I also think, that you all deserve to know about me some.
I was a Marine, Police Chief, Firefighter, High End private security Specialist, and the Security Ops manager of our countries second largest train station by 30. I had suffered so many injuries in the line of duty that by 30, I was forced to retire because of my disabilities. Spinal cord, nerve damage, arthritis in every joint and to much more to list. You know your body is F'up'd when the guy Social Security sends you to for an eval hands you cards of his buddies that are specialist that may be able to help. So at the age of 30, with out any fight from the government, I retired. I am 35 now, and it has taken five years of hard work to get to where I can get out in the field. I can no longer hunt or fish alone. My body has stuff that will work one minute, and then all of a sudden I cant feel my leg, Or my arm dont work. I have to work out to keep my muscles going, but it is a double edged sword. If I work out to much the Pump I get causes muscles to swell, and pinch off already damaged nerves. I am not whining, just letting you know where I am comeing from. I know where the guys and gals are in there head, and they have to stay positive. It is hard to do somedays. Thank You, and I look forward to hearing from you all and if you have any questions, feel free to PM me.
