If you have seen the front page you might have noticed something out of the norm. We are playing a small (minuscule) part in an annual fund raiser for an organization called Soldiers Angels (501(C)(3)) for those keeping score) and their project to provide technology items that assist the recovery of wounded service men and women. More details here (http://striped-bass.com/striper-fishing/index.php/articles/fishing-articles/159-valout-it-2009) This fundraiser runs through Veterans Day

The project is a competition between "teams" representing the 4 major branches of the armed services with the winner being those that receive the assistance. We're supporting Navy for pretty much being "water" related content :hihi: .

I you wish to donate as part of Team S-B, click on the link on the front page or HERE. (http://striped-bass.com/striper-fishing/index.php/articles/fishing-articles/159-valout-it-2009)

If your allegiance is to a branch you served in of have something in common, the other teams can be selected from here (http://soldiersangels.org/index.php?page=project-valour-it).

Thank you and thank them.

If you do throw something in for Team S-B / Team Navy - shout out here and I'll put you in a pool for winning something from here ;)

NAVY is a good choice. Some of us look like a Navy Seal when we hit the surf with all the gear we have on.

I will definitely chip in (can't do Navy, got to kick it in to the Army)but in about a half hour I'm on the way to BW where my wife will be induced and we'll have a new baby boy. Can't wait.:soon:

Excellent - thanks!

Dmenace - congrats on the delivery :btu:
