On this episode of the SEWE Spotlight  we're joined by Ben and JR from Operation Patriots FOB (OPFOB). We discuss the organization's mission to help veterans and their experience over the weekend at SEWE. 

Please pardon the audio quality on this episode as the packed SEWE crows and other vendors playing music provided some challenges for recording.

Topics Discussed:  The start and inspiration for starting OPFOB. The struggles that veterans deal with coming home from years of consecutive combat deployments. How nature and outdoor activities help veterans deal with the challenges of PTSD and transitioning to civilian life. Losing unimaginable numbers of friends to suicide. Dealing with the family and friends not understanding veteran struggles. The advantages of the G.I. Bill that veterans overlook. Hog hunting and other outdoor activities and the community and comrade OPFOB is able to provide. OPFOB's big concert event they put on every year. How you and I can help and support veterans organizations and help OPFOB locally in the S.C. Lowcountry.
