Thumbs up Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing

As featured on CNN.com today:

Wounded warriors go fishing for recovery

Retired Navy Capt. Ed Nicholson helps wounded service members through fly-fishing.

Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing aids their physical and emotional healing processes.

Since 2005, Nicholson's program has grown to more than 50 locations nationwide.

From the Project Healing Waters website: "Dedicated to the physical and emotional rehabilitation of disabled active duty military personnel and veterans through fly fishing and fly tying education and outings."

Watch the CNN video on retired Navy Captain Nicholson's awesome program for disabled military personnel and veterans:

** Watch the entire video -- not just the touching first segment about Army Staff Sgt. Brian Mancini and his bride, but the segment following the break featuring many other soldiers the program has helped -- over 1,000 since 2004. **

Thank God for folks like this who organize programs for our injured servicemen and women and their families.
