    I hope this works for you. I tried it last year in the DFW area. I notified several of the local VFW posts but received no takers. I was going to do one trip a week and would furnish everything. All they needed to do was get their fishing license, which is free for disabled vets in Texas. They all took my telephone number and stated they would notify their members, but nobody called.

    Will this be only offered in AR?

    Wow, this is taking off. We just need some veterans. Great job guys. Not sure how to reach out to more veterans though.

    You’re right, Slab, this idea sure is getting traction. Hope some VFW and American Legion guys can get out the word.
