22, with 22, for the 22, 09.26.15
Marine vet Cody Nickson, center, joins others in standing at attention during the National Anthem before the start of the "22, with 22, for the 22" on Saturday, September 26, 2015. "22, with 22, for the 22" is a grassroots concept uniting combat veterans who hike 22km, while carrying 22kg (48lbs), to raise awareness of, and prevent, the 22 veteran suicides every day. Adding humor to the mix, the veterans hike wearing only their "silkies," minuscule, green physical training shorts made famous by the Marines. The event helps build support and camaraderie between vets to help create support networks to combat PTSD.
