A 65-Year Dream: Vietnam Veteran Finally Gets His First Custom Surfboard

When a society prioritizes wealth above all else it becomes irredeemable, it has no real value. The good news is that wealth is limited to 1% of the population and there are plenty of remarkable stories of human grace, kindness, and strength amongst the rest of the population. 

This is one such story involving a surfboard shaper, Dave Yearwood, and a Navy veteran and unknown American icon, Dennis Eugene Fells Jr. I originally saw this posted on Yearwood’s Instagram account and it was a rare spot of gold in a sea of heavy metals.
