Team-
One year ago I had just redeployed from Poland. I could barely walk. I had to lean on the walls of the hotel hallway I stayed in at the airport or fully rely on the luggage rack. This weekend, I hiked the Appalachian Trail with my new hip. This journey has been life changing!

Happy holidays!
