AMAZING FEAT OF GOOD WILL! Ex-Marine partnered with his Mustang, Crow, and traveled 2700 miles to raise money for Veterans in need!






Wow.

Talk about following through!!

This Ex marine, Matt Littrell, started in North Carolina with his Mustang, Crow, and 7 months later, they ended up at Camp Pendleton.  The goal was to raise as much money as possible for Veterans suffering from PTSD.

What a great guy!  He raised $87,500 for his fellow Veterans.

Nice.

I really respect people who have the courage of their convictions.  Below is his story and here is his FaceBook link.

The horses don’t seem as into this part as the riders…

DEAR TO MY HEART…

Hubby suffers from PTSD after his tour in Iraq.

PTSD is real.  It is horrible and can be debilitating.  I totally honor anyone who is willing to do what they can to help their fellow comrades in arms.    And, to do it on a HORSE, Wowee!!   Doubly Good!

Good on you, Matt Littrell.  Thank you.

A lovely shot.

A lovely shot.
