 WELCOME TO THE FALLEN OUTDOORS

The Fallen Outdoors mission is to organize outdoor adventures for veterans past and present, from every generation and from all branches of the military. Our aim is to connect Soldiers, Airmen, Sailors, and Marines with like-minded individuals along with teaching them a skill and passion they can continue for a lifetime.

The Fallen Outdoors began in 2009 at a remote outpost in Afghanistan with three soldiers; SSG John Bates, Spc Eric Finniginamm and Spc Eric Bakken. Year after year The Fallen Outdoors (TFO) grew and expanded, they put in every extra second they had while on active duty. Today the TFO serves thousands of veterans a year across this great nation. What started off as a simple idea to help veterans get outdoors has transformed into a lifestyle that the TFO nation lives and breathes every day.

WHAT VETERANS ARE SAYING

 

“I am a disabled vet with ALS, I have lost most strength in my arms and my walking had become rocket science. I posted on the Fallen outdoors fb page that I was interested in a duck hunt but had limitations that I needed to talk with someone about. Eric Bakken got ahold of me pretty quick and got something set up for me… The Fallen outdoors had given me an opportunity that I would not have been able to experience without them.”

-Josh G.

WHAT VETERANS ARE SAYING

 

“Last Saturday was the first time I have had the pleasure of fishing with Eli. I had a great time learning how to fly fish although aggravating at times it was a very rewarding experience. I enjoyed fishing new rivers with a great guy that knows a lot about fishing and enjoys sharing his knowledge with fellow vets. I look forward to getting out on some water with him in the future.”

-Jason D.

WHAT VETERANS ARE SAYING

 

“I fully recommend to any Veterans out there who would like to get out, whether it be hunting or fishing, look these guys up, they are truly dedicated to helping Veterans enjoy the outdoors. They are a strictly non-profit group of hard-working individuals who volunteer their free time to help other service members. My experience was one I will never forget.”

-Sam Phipps.
