If he get with the right military personnel, it wouldn't be a problem getting people.

I think it's a great idea. Me and my two cousins are Marine veterans and we were talking about how it would be a good idea to do something for fishing like the wounded warriors have been doing for hunting. You will have no problem finding military personnel that would like to fish tournaments or just to fish with pros. When I was stationed in Arizona some of the bass pros did something similar. Great idea!
I think that's a wonderful and noble idea. I would take the interested soldiers fun fishing with the same intensity of a tourney first tho to make sure they would enjoy the stress of tourney fishing opposed to just going fishing.
Wayne, its an excellent idea. They will already be winners just fishing in that setting, the only pressure will be what you put on em so you will be in control of that.
good luck, if you come up and need another rig anytime let me know, my rig is always available for such things!!
Absolutely a great idea. Once the word is out and that you're really serious, my guess is you'll not have trouble finding participants. Being all the way up in MO., my proximity might limit me as to what I can physically do, but if you need some funding I know plenty of organizations here that could/would kick in some bucks for the special needs/equipment that some of these heros might need. Follow this thru and make it happen!!!!! Bless you for thinking of it.
