Hi Brandon. I have done events at Colleges with the frat house's competiting against each other. The College has sponsored the whole event, trophies plous the cost for the referee's and scorekeepers. I have done events at prisons with one cell block against the other, the state has paid all the cost for that. You could contact the base and see who is in charge of athletic's and ask them. It would be foolish to have pro armwrestlers come and compete against servicemen. Hope this helps. Bill Cox

Brandon, I retired after 22 yrs as a Navy diver and SAR swimmer. The man who can hook you up is a guy named Hal Pittman. He used to be a LCDR, and may even be retired by now, I'll see in I can get his contact info. The military used to have a team when Hal was running things, we actually went to the goodwill games in panama one yr. Bill, it would be foolish on your part to assume that no one in the military pulls at a pro level. I did for years!!! Go get'em Brandon.
