Friends of Windward Wounded Warriors

Friends of Windward Wounded Warriors NOT AFFILIATED WITH THE WOUNDED WARRIOR PROJECT. Please put WW in the memo line.

We connect the wounded, ill, and injured Marines aboard Kaneohe Bay with the local community through friendships, mentorships and recreational activities. A wide range of injuries requires a wide range of services which includes surgery, therapy, training and education. These Marines and their families come to our beautiful islands during a very stressful time, facing new challenges and an uncerta

in future. While working hard to recover and rehabilitate, much of their time is spent on base involved in the extensive services provided there. Our organization, led by Chaplain Steve Jensen, provides a link to the local community by organizing social events, finding career internships, and introducing the Wounded Warrior program to local businesses and organizations. Donations can be made online at: www.memberplanet.com/campaign/honolulunavyleague/woundedwarriorfund or checks may be sent to Honolulu Navy League, PO Box 31032, Honolulu, HI 96820.

We were pleased to host our British and Australian Wounded Warriors beside our Navy and USMC troops for a day at the Pearl Harbor historic sites.

Our thanks to Navy Region historian Jim Newman for arranging the Navy boat to take us on a narrated tour of the USS Arizona memorial, to Captain Ring and the USS Bowfin Submarine Museum, USS Missouri staff, and the Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum staff for hosting us at their sites.

It was good to reconnect with Doug Schmidt over lunch outside of Syracuse in Upstate NY yesterday. His 5 kids are well and doing amazing things.

Doug became enamored with horses while at the Det with our equine therapy program and now volunteers for one near him helping special needs people.

Our thanks to Warrior Foundation Freedom Station for funding Dress for Success for 2 of our recovering service members again this year.

Now they're set for celebrating Carpenters' anniversary tonight, upcoming job fairs, and the Marine Corps birthday ball.

Personal stylist Bert and store manager Trisha were most helpful. Mahalo!

Belated congratulations to Avery Fujie on his certification as HazMat Specialist.

Avery suffered a broken back in the Osprey crash 11 years ago, but has doggedly worked to recover and excel at Hilo Fire Department as a first responder.

No doubt he will continue to take on one challenge after another.

We were so entertained by Annika's infant son at our farewell lunch for her that we forgot to take photos.

She was our Warrior Athletic Reconditioning Program coordinator for several years and made a dramatic difference in the recovery and spirits of our recovering service members. She is already sorely missed, but many of her programs and contacts will keep us moving forward. Mahalo nui loa, Annika!
