2012 Warrior Tribute in Santee Delta

There are never enough opportunities to thank U.S. servicemen for the years of their lives that they give so that others may enjoy the taste of freedom. The 2011 Inaugural Warrior Tribute event and duck hunt was a landmark success, and the Georgetown Chapter of Ducks Unlimited made it a priority to once again offer hospitality in the form of a duck hunt on private plantations. About twenty servicemen from Fort Bragg in North Carolina, with six to ten support personnel, came to Estherville Plantation on December 14 for an oyster roast, and a chance to have fellowship in a relaxed civilian environment. Each visiting Warrior was given a duck blind bag, a duck call, a duck stamp, a camo shirt and hat and whatever else they might need to have success the following morning in the duck blinds of the Santee Delta. Enjoy these photos and look for my feature article in the next edition of the Charleston Mercury newspaper.
