Share a conversation with a small group of noble military veterans, and young men in Hood River, Oregon. Hosted by Gorge resident Navy Veteran Daniel Comp, author of Scotomaville. If you're a military veteran, come share your battle lessons, scars, and marvelous character strengths from your service. You'll discover your challenges have become strengths, much appreciated by younger men. We're talking about an expedition - a Personal Everest - a journey with a purpose of understanding Why We Do What We Do (wwdwwd). If you are a young man, frustrated with online combat, come to learn why it is so powerful, and how story-telling is a super power. You'll learn about blind-spots, cognitive bias, and dozens of things we suggest you not step on!

It again brings together military veterans and young men for a conversation to share experiences and learn from each other. As in your previous posts, the aim is to foster a dialogue that supports personal growth and community development. These videos are all part of your broader initiative to promote your Scotomaville trilogy, using the concept as a metaphor for personal challenges and journeys to overcome them. In each video, you remind your viewers of the 'free' nature of the event and the opportunity it provides to get out of 'Scotomaville', i.e., a symbolic reference to overcoming personal obstacles. These events are referred to as 'Personal Everest' underlining the individual, personal challenge each attendee is encouraged to face and overcome, in alignment with the overarching theme of the Scotomaville content series. The mention of the Hood River County Library as the location for this event further emphasizes your commitment to community engagement and the importance of public spaces for fostering such dialogue." watch_stem: scotomaville-03-00-veteran-events-hood-river-or watch_path: /v/scotomaville-03-00-veteran-events-hood-river-or.html related_article: Video/GARWIS_scotomaville-03-00-veteran-events-hood-river.md summary: "A brief final reminder for the Hood River veterans event at the library on February 23. \"Come have a conversation and let's get the heck out of Scotomaville.\" It is a logistics record, kept because showing up locally is part of the work.

And this is an invitation for you to join me in a small group of noble veterans for a conversation about a journey of a lifetime—an expedition. If you’re a young man looking for advice on things that you should not be stepping on, or if you’re a noble veteran and you’d like to share some of your experiences, I want to invite you to a conversation. Thursday February 23rd from 6:30 to 8 pm at the Hood River Library. Come have a conversation and let’s get the heck out of Scotomaville. See you there. **Angelina:** You forgot to tell them it’s free. **Daniel:** Yeah, it’s free. And bring a vet.
