Roy Greenfield trapper R Joined: Mar 2007 Amherst, NE	Gary and I crossed paths in the mid80's the first time. He was not only one of the most knowledgeable trappers, lure makers and sportsmen's I have ever known but also extremely active in the trapping regulation arena. He served as Vice-President of the FTA for decades, officer of the North Dakota FTA and several other ventures. We served on the FTA Officers board for countless hours of meetings. Information exchange between the two of us seemed to be a one-way exchange. He so often shared his knowledge to trappers or politicians. Rest in Peace Gary! Enjoy those campfires with the other great's up above! Roy Last edited by Roy Greenfield; 6 hours ago. Vietnam 1970 & 1971, Delta 3/506 101st ABN 11B, Light Weapons Infantry
