Members and guests listen intently to guest speaker Major David Daly, graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy, and also an artillery officer in Afghanistan and Iraq. During this month’s April 2026 lunch meeting at Oasis Country Club, Major Daly shared many of his extraordinary experiences during five combat tours. He was awarded the Navy & Marine Corps Achievement Medal for Valor. Dealing with his undiagnosed PTSD, Major Daly also shared his personal story of how the Wounded Warrior Project helped him.
