A group of veterans recently challenged themselves physically to make a difference in regard to PTSD, as June is PTSD Awareness Month.
Eventually, Prichard became sober and started living a much healthier life — and was able to hike over 100 miles in one Midwest summer.
The first hike took place in Colorado in 2020 when he and other veterans decided to take the initiative in combating some of the mental health issues that veterans struggle with in their lives. Semper Fi & America’s Fund, headquartered in Camp Pendleton, California, is an organization that provides financial assistance and support for critically wounded, ill and injured service members and veterans. It also assists military families in need, according to the organization’s website.
