Brent, Thankyou for your service. What a trip. You are worthy. Keep up the fight.
Glad HHO could help and thanks for sharing. Please don't feel anymore guilt. And thank you for your service
What a great feeling just surrounding yourself with some great company and spending time in the great outdoors, thanks for sharing your story brother.
Thank you for sharing. The HHO trips have been a great opportunity to connect with other veterans and heal.
Thanks for your story and service, HHO is the best!
Brent, I appreciate you sharing as I hope it will help more of us step forward.
Thanks for all you do for our veterans!!!

Thank you for sharing. Being around the right people sure helped me do. Better in my PTSD. CIB here. I appreciate all the volunteers and people who helped make this happen.
What an inspiring story. Looked like a beautiful trip. And what a simple yet powerful piece of advice … deal with it now or deal with it later.
An inspirational story and a good reason to keep sealing ways to stay connected. I wish a production crew like that followed me on a hunt once in a while- wow, great job everyone.
Thanks for sharing your story Brent.
Thank you for sharing your story! ❤️ What a great opportunity.
First thing thank you all for your service. This video was not what I had expected but was still great. Your story gave me chills. I unfortunately never went into the military but my best friend is a Navy vet and the number 1 thing that helps him is the great outdoors being in nature. It's great to see these places doing stuff for our vets the sacrifices that are made y'all deserve a lot more than what you get in my opinion. But Chris is deffenetly proud of you in more ways than you could imagine he would want you to live ur best life. Again thanks to all military members veterans or still active duty I truly thank you for the sacrifice and service you have to go through

@@hometownherooutdoors first video I've seen from you guys and I'm hooked I subscribed almost instantly. I'm from maine and we have another organization called operation reboot outdoors that kinda does the same thing. Uses the outdoors to get vets together make new friends make fun memories but also to help them heal they are really great and have blown up over the past 5 years. They are also a 501c non profit and their mission is unstoppable. Would be awesome to see a due on here in the future.
Thanks for sharing this testimony!
TY, for the sharing of your story. Being someone that suffers with severe PTSD, I can feel what you are going through everyday. I also have the common problem of not being able to talk about what I've been through, on a good day, I can make it through the day without overthinking my want to join the 22. So glad you have found help.
Thank you for sharing your story. It takes courage to share and I hope others will find the healing that you did from this amazing organization.
Awesome..A great story and well deserved.
A great opportunity thanks for taking the time and sharing your story! It’s always hard to ask for help but we’re all glad you did!
This was an amazing testimony. Had to be a great experience. Once in a lifetime. We where at Fort Bragg at the same time. I was in 1st Brigade. 82nd Airborne Div. Airborne brother
Man that was a touching story. We all have our own experiences and I feel for you brother. Been going on 15 years myself with 6 deployments. Glad you were able to get out and have the experience. HHO rocks and friends for a lifetime.
Asking for help was so difficult for me to do, but so thankful I have in the past. So many others feel asking for help is a burden, but only to find out how many others will be there for you because they choose to be. Great story
Thanks for sharing your story.
Thank you for sharing your story
Thank you for sharing your story and thank you to those who put these events on. Brent, so proud of you for continuing on; you will be an amazing teacher/leader.
What a great story and such an experience you had!
Thanks for sharing, great video. HHO rocks!
Amazing story Brent. Stay strong and keep up the great work. Thank you hho staff for everything you do
Brent, thank you for sharing your story. There are many of us who still find it difficult to ask for help and also feel our journey in the military isn't as worthy as those who've been in combat roles or given their life for everyone's freedom. I am one of those. You're story is an inspiration and hopefully our brothers and sisters will listen and take action. To HHO, thank you for everything you do. I've been fortunate to have been a part of a couple of events and enjoyed the camaraderie that I miss so much. Keep it going, keep it strong.
Thanks for sharing your story, keep you head up.
Brent, I know this was hard for you to talk about but I am sure your story will help others identify and appreciate where you are coming from. I know Chris would be super proud of you for the awesome man you are and mentor you have become to the younger generation. God bless you brother and God bless HHO for all they have done for you, me and all the other veterans!
Great job sharing your story, I know that wasn’t easy. Proud to know you brother!

Brent, your story is truly remarkable. You have come a long way in being able to openly talk about your journey which in turn will help others who are where you have been. You are worthy of these trips. Chris would be so proud and happy for you to be able to move forward in your life. I know for a fact he would also want you to! Sorry the moose got away but the healing is well worth it.
You guy should have a lot more subscribers you’re great!

Deal with now or deal with it later is so true- I see it all the time. Vets have to talk to each other enough of us have been there we know what worked for us and you arent alone
Awesome video, Megan actually came to a atv crash scene two summers ago when my buddy crashed into a tree and poor lady was stung by a bee at the crash site within mins and was sent in the ambulance as well 😅😂

Awesome story brother. Really rear jerking. But imagine all this to come home to no one. No family. No friends. Nothing. Just yourself in a lonely world.

How would a disabled veteran go about applying for a hunt with your organization?
Well, did he get a Moose 🤷♂️

Unfortunately not. The guides did a great job but the moose didn't want to cooperate.
