As you can imagine our Yellowstone trips are a very popular event every year since it is for such a long duration and an all paid event in such a amazing place it tends to get a very large response and even though this year we require you to bring a guest in order to keep the COVID gods at bay it did not surprise us at all to see just as many applicants.

This year we will be working in the Canyon district rebuilding the backcountry ranger corrals and livestock infrastructure in order for the park to operate on a daily basis in their respective districts. This will mark the 12 year warfighter have been in the park rebuilding infrastructure.

Without further delay here is the chosen Veteran roster for YNP 2020

Congratulations to those Warfighters who have been chosen and watch your inbox for more info and directions. For those who were not chosen this year don’t let that stop you from signing up in the future, our methods are random and we never know who will be going.

In order to be hip and compliant with COVID we had to change some things up and decided to just simply redo the application process. Each vet has to bring one working guest this year in order to maximize the accommodations. We will be drawing the recipients next week.

In order to take you back to the days of Front line leaders barking at you for an hour and standing in formation before a LeMans style race start to your POV’s and racing to get off post we though we would give you a familiar taste of what you are missing this weekend and some of you are still going through.

• Don’t add to the population
• Don’t take away from the population
• Stay out of the hospital, The newspaper, and Jail
• If you do end up in jail, Establish dominance quickly
• No Drinking and driving, period!
• Drugs. Seriously, Don’t.
• Adult decisions have adult consequences.
• Wear your reflective belt
• Don’t forge government paperwork
• Don’t trash your barracks
• Don’t sleep with everyone you can, Privates. Remember, STD’s aren’t like Pokemon; you don’t have to catch em all
• If you wind up in the housing area with a female, run. Only two females live there; wives and underage daughters.
• Do not assemble an improvised explosive device in the trunk of your POV over in the holdover parking lot and blow your finger off
• Drinking, Driving, Swimming, and Having sex: doing two or more at a time is dangerous. If you do all four, I want a picture monday! Fallout

Oh and this happened, We made national news this weekend, share it around, and help us earn some donations because this RONA virus has been cramping our style fo sho! Move out, draw fire……

We are collaborating with our dear friends at Field of dreams, Inc in northern California to be able to provide a free of charge fully guided and outfitted Hog hunt in Colusa county California. Why?

Because we feel nonprofits should work together for the greater good of serving veterans and support each other as part of their mission!
