We are grateful for the men and women who serve in the military, protect our country, and exemplify courage and bravery. Each year, we take pride in dedicating our July issue to these brave veterans as we highlight their stories.
This is the ninth year for our annual “Salute The Troops” edition, which began when we noticed that so many pontoon and deck boat enthusiasts writing to us had not only spent time in the military, but also were looking forward to getting out on the water when they returned home from deployment. However or wherever you served, we honor you for putting your lives on the line to protect our freedoms. We salute you!
