On March 2, (Sunday) a group of us visited Hanshi Sid Campbell at the Veteran's Hospital in Martinez, Ca. where he is recovering from his battle with cancer. Sigung Mark Gerry coordinated the event. If you know Hanshi, then you know he watched every minute of the Fight Quest TV shows. So, just to make the visit a bit more special for Hanshi, Mark brought Doug Anderson, one of the fighters from the show. Hanshi was so happy to see everyone and he really enjoyed Doug's visit.
Doug is an Iraq veteran. While at the hospital he took the time to meet with all of the other veterans in the hospital. There were several very touching moments. Our veterans deserve all the love and support we can show them and Doug's concern and support was heartfelt and genuine.
Like all of you, I was really fired up over the Kajukenbo Fight Quest TV Show, but sharing that time with Hanshi, Mark, Doug, my students, other martial arts family members, and some of our veterans was priceless.
