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 uncertain 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.

Some of our Warriors finally got to spend the day aboard Whipsaw for sport fishing with a very attentive crew. Thanks, sponsors, for enabling us to provide such activities for our Wounded Warriors!

It was an honor to represent Wounded Warriors at this year's American Patriot Awards honoring 2 stellar retired military leaders - Admiral John Aquilino and Captain Steve Colon.

It's always good to see Admiral Papparo, Indo-Pacific Command, and hear his insight and wisdom. He's a leader who ALWAYS recognizes the people who work for him and gives them credit for the strides in preparedness.

We've been most fortunate to have these 2 4-stars leading this most important command covering more than half of the globe.

Thanks to our sponsors, we enjoyed our annual Dolphin Quest event yesterday. Some 23 active duty & medically retired warriors brought their families for this sunny but quite windy day.

We appreciate the staff who provided quite a lot of information, but took into account the needs and limitations of each person.

Our sport fishing charter was double booked today, so we had to postpone 2 weeks. Breakfast at Zippys took the sting out of getting up at 4 am.

Hopefully the storms that continue to form won't cause that charter to cancel.

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.
