A BIG decision for a young Man
 

It's not fish related or Kayak related, but I think you will all appreciate something I am VERY proud of.

In this day and age of unrest in the world where we seem to be getting our hands into everything.

There are those who fight for our rights to fish, and they are appreciated.

My son has made a big decision in his life to fight for our freedom, and was sworn in yesterday to the Army!

Many in our family are prior military to include me (USMC OOORAH), and I know a lot of fishing folks here on BWE are either Prior or Active military, so needless to say we are proud of his decision .
