Soldier On Fundraiser aims to help homeless Veterans Dignity, integrity and hope I applaud the Common Man owner Alex Ray and all the citizens that actually help the damaged US Military Veteran try to come home mentally/physically with these three words. The Veteran Resort-Chapel S-corporation non-profit is being built at 101 Stepping Stone Rd Lee NH. A few months back my wife surprised me and said it has always been your dream to help homeless and disabled US Military Veterans. My wife who has been saving money while raising three daughters all these years to travel in retirement suggested we spend that money on land to build the Veteran Resort-Chapel. We purchased 11.5 acres waterfront property to build single person cabins scattered through the woods for homeless and disabled US Military Veterans to have dignity, integrity and hope as we try to come back to the nation we love and did it for. Rod Doherty of the Foster’s newspaper, reporters told me was spreading the rumor that the Veteran Resort-Chapel is just and election ploy. I at the time was running for NH State Senate. Newspapers refuse to print any facts on the Veteran Resort-Chapel causing frustrated residents to call the police and town government because ignorant people complain causing delays. The chance that if the public was informed what the Veteran Resort Chapel was for maybe some one would donate a load of gravel or have some heavy equipment they want to sell cheap, maybe we could get a homeless veteran off the street quicker. To start the first cabin and get the site ready we maxed our home with a mortgage and this we hope will get the first of many US Military homeless veterans a place to call home free of charge for as long as they need a place. This all sounds fake as no one does this with their own money. I came back from the Vietnam Conflict with four disabilities. My wife over the years lives with my abnormal effects to make my life possible. Many US Military Veterans are not so lucky. My wife has never seen combat but you can bet she has many times lived through the torment of seeing just what it has done. My motivation with my wife’s support is to try to prevent today’s returning US Military Veterans from going through what the returning veterans of the past have. Living with PTSD, TBI a broken back and loss of most hearing in both ears gives my wife and I complete vision of what these men and women are going through. There are many good citizens out there in the State of New Hampshire. My request is that you ask the newspapers across NH why they censor the facts about the Veteran Resort-Chapel. We are using our own money. We live in a home just up the road that the bank now holds the mortgage on. We are not asking any one or our government for money. If a business wants to donate material or equipment or sell it at a cheap price it will be welcome. It is all a tax deductable donation. If the readers of the newspapers are kept ignorant it will take us just that much longer to help those that gave everything for our Freedom. Call a newspaper and ask them why. Tell the newspaper ethic board about Rod Doherty’s actions. “There is nothing so powerful as truth”. Daniel Webster Peter Macdonald Sgt USMC Semper Fi 465 Packers falls rd Lee NH 03824 603-781-3839
