UCC Wounded Warrior Project with Jesse Babson May 04, 2018

Show notes

The Wounded Warrior Project helps veterans get back on their feet after serving in areas of conflict, like Iraq and Afghanistan. Big events like the Ultimate Callout Challenge offer opportunities to the WWP because here they can meet other vets - maybe even encounter those who may need their help. The organization provides outreach to help vets in need. Paul talks to Jesse Babson of Detroit, Michigan - an Army vet who served two tours - one in Iraq and the other in Afghanistan.
