In its May 16, 2013 issue, the Seminole Beacon reports that American Legion Post 252 Cross Bayou has teamed with a company called Dive Care to help the disabled experience scuba diving. The divers who assist the veterans actually practice diving with simulated disabilities to understand what the veterans will experience underwater. Very interesting article. Here is a link to the Beacon‘s webpage where you can read the article in its entirety: http://tbnweekly.com/editorial/health_news/content_articles/051413_hth-01.txt.
