I'd like to gauge involvement in a national program called Project Healing Waters. Any current participants?
I am an assistant Program Lead for our local chapter, and I want to get as many Vets involved as possible. If you're a vet, with an s/c disability, who wants to learn about fly-fishing, with no cost to you, get in touch.

Sounds interesting. I meet the qualification and have been fly-fishing since my brief assignment to Ft Bragg in 1967. Later as a civilian spook I had a briefcase-sized rod from Eagle Claw that I could take on TDYs to D.C. rarely have the opportunity now, but still vividly remember casting flies in Germany with the mandatory salute of “Petri, Heil!” Have a rig ready to give nine-old grandson next week. Looking forward to teaching the joys of “not fishing” in which the bard is cut off from the hook and you cast about only to stimulate a strike, with no intention of keeping your catch. It,s a wonderful stimulant to prayer and meditation, when the last thing I want it’s to be disturbed by a hungry fish.
