Owning a jet boat guide company is not the typical next career after the military, but we found someone who did it. Homer Brown returned to his hometown of Whitebird, Idaho after his time in the Army, and now he spends his days on the Snake River running rapids, catching sturgeon, and giving his customers a sense that they are part of his local community. To top it off, he’s also the town mayor.

The Mission43 team had the opportunity to discover his version of Idaho After The Military. Check out our day with Homer Brown, owner of Hammer Down Excursions and Mayor of Whitebird, Idaho.
