    This is a worthwhile program for those that have the time to do it.
    When I was on active duty, I had the Warrington route. Took me less than two hours during lunch. It will bring you a great deal of satisfaction meeting the people that you will be helping and slowly becoming a part of their life. They really do need our help.
