On this episode of W.A.R. (We Are Resilient), Oscar Mike Radio and Hellfish Haven team up to talk about the NFL’s Salute to Service initiative, the gear that supports it, and what patriotism looks like in Pats Nation.
We break down how Salute to Service gear actually helps veterans, where the money goes, and why it matters to the military community. We also get into the New England Patriots fanbase, the veteran spirit in Pats Nation, and how fans can turn team pride into real support for service members, veterans, and their families.
In this episode:
What NFL Salute to Service gear is and how the NFL donates 100% of its proceeds to military nonprofits
The core nonprofit partners: Bob Woodruff Foundation, Pat Tillman Foundation, TAPS, USO, and Wounded Warrior Project
How those organizations support veterans, service members, caregivers, and families
The meaning of patriotism in Pats Nation and the Patriots community
How fans can support veterans through gear, donations, and local organizations
Why resilience, service, and community go beyond the field
Whether you’re a Patriots fan, a veteran, active-duty military, a military family member, or just someone who wants to know where your money goes when you buy Salute to Service merch, this conversation is for you.
