I received a call from a non ham member of the Flagler Palm Coast
Amateur radio club wondering about Veterans Day participation in this
event.  Perhaps setting up a station at the UDT Museum.  This is what he
told me.

The Zodiac River Rats, (named by Chief Patches Watson), are once again
cruising the Atlantic Intercoastal, and veterans of all services are
invited to attend. We will depart Jacksonville a and travel down the
ICW, (Intercoastal Waterway) in Zodiac rubber boats to attend the
Veterans Day muster at the UDT/SEAL Museum in Fort Pierce, FL. We will
make 2 overnight stops along the way in Daytona Beach and Melbourne. The
purpose of this evolution is to honor our Veterans, fly the colors down
the intercoastal, and raise some cash for the museum. This has a large
impact as there will be media coverage; both radio, TV, and papers.
There will be a professional photographer on board to record the event
for a possible TV special. This helps bring attention to the museum also
and will increase the memberships. If we are not careful, we may even
have some fun too. You will meet some great people, ride in a Zodiac,
and get your name in the paper!

This would be on Veteran's dAY weekend.  While they ride on the boats,
they usually have some hams on board and thought it might be cool to
have a station at the Museum as a special event.  I said I would pitch
it at the meeting but I can't be there so please pass it along tomorrow
night.  If anyone wants more info,  they can call Bob Matson.
904-687-0832.  That is his office number.
