TRAER — An idea that has been living in the mind of a Traer veteran for years has finally come to fruition. Ian Wheeldon, an ex-marine who had two deployments to Afghanistan, had the initial thought for the foundation Frontlines United; after mentioning it to a few friends, it is now up and running.
Frontlines United Inc. began in February, and as it says on their Facebook page, the mission is simple: to reunite active duty veterans and first responders. The phrase stuck in co-founder Casey Schmidt’s head is ‘remove the roadblocks.’
