Past Hunts & Outdoor Experiences

Past Hunt • Arkansas • October 31–November 1, 2026

A Great Speck Hunt. Even Better Company.

Our Arkansas specklebelly goose hunt brought together time in the field, outdoor fellowship, and the camaraderie at the heart of VETDD214.

We were honored to share this experience with Kurt Joseph Perque Jr. and Michael Gary. Kurt served in the Louisiana National Guard and active-duty Army, with deployments to Afghanistan and Iraq. Michael served 25½ years in the military and is a Purple Heart recipient.

Thank you to the hosts, volunteers, and supporters who helped make this hunt possible—and to Kurt and Michael for their service.

Honoring service. Sharing the outdoors. Making memories together.
