Crappie. com Helping Our Military

[crappie cowboy]

We have a crappie.com member, Derrick Fulton that goes by Drill Instructor,
that is in the Army and station in Ga. with his family right now. Derrick has served several tours in Iraq, and has paid some heavy dues for his country.

Derrick is a super crappie fisherman, and guides on weekends, but his motor on his boat has blown, and can no longer fish, his motor has been down over a year, and his guiding business is no longer, and he has sponsor's that may be dropping him, if he can't get back to fishing and pushing there products.

Derrick depended on the money from his guiding business to supplement his income from the Army, and everybody knows our military guys are grossly under paid for what they go though, and risk there life.

Ed and myself are asking for donations from our c.com members to help Derrick to get his motor repaired [$3000 dollars] and back on the water and guiding.
Any amount of donations would help Derrick.

We're not setting up a fund, but a address to sent any donations to help Derrick. This was not Derrick's idea, it's something Ed. and crappie.com, and myself are doing to show appreciation for what Derrick has done for all of us.....protected America at all cost.

Please email Ed. or myself, and donate something, even it's $5.00 dollars, every bite will help Derrick. We will then give you an address to send your donation.
Derrick has never failed to answer the call, to risk his life in Iraq, so let's help get this young man back to crappie fishing.
Moderator please post as a sticky, and maybe on all state forums.... please.
Thank yall for reading ......... crappie cowboy

Thanks CC for setting this up. You guys remember Drill Instructors pictures of a pond in Iraq, I do. I know he's a great guy, and I support this effort 100%.

So, we don't want to set up a middle man, we want to send the donations direct. That's why we are asking you to PM us for the address to send the donation to. No middle man to wonder about whether your money went to the right place.

Anyway, Derrick has done his part serving our country, and I'm happy to do my part to help him back onto the water. Let's give Derrick a helping hand. You can do it anonymously by PMing myself or Crappie Cowboy, or you can simply reply here that you want in, and we'll pm you the address.

I was one of the C.c members that sent DI some fishing equipment, when he was in Iraq ... so that he and his men could enjoy their downtime, doing what they loved to do ... FISH !!

PM me the address, please. I'd be more than happy to send a donation to get Derrick back into the business of guiding !!
