Thru-Hiking PJs now deep inside Virginia

By Lt Col P

Got a nice email from Craig and David, the two USAF Pararescuemen who are hiking the length of the Appalachian Trail They wrote to say thanks for the link, and to report that they're at Route 60.

If they're at Route 60, they're very close to VMI. I sent a note to a good friend there suggesting that the AF ROTC department have a couple of motivated cadets make contact with them. I hope the word made its way to the right ears. If not, maybe someone will hear it now because they'll still be in reasonable driving distance of Lexington for a while yet.

If you haven't visited their site, Trail to Recovery, go there now. Drop 'em a line too. Anyone who's done any hiking on the AT will know that a couple days' hike is one thing, but to go from shelter to shelter every day for months on end takes exceptional dedication.
