Service monkeys

I figured this had to be a joke. But apparently it is not. Monkeys for the disabled.

Trail to recovery

Two Air Force guys, both pararescueman–but one of them medically retired after being severely wounded in Iraq– are hiking the entire, 2,200-mile Appalachian Trail, from Maine to Georgia. In part to become two of the fewer than 500 people to do the whole thing, and also to publicize a fundraiser for disabled veterans. Pictures, a map and full details at the link. As of the 26th, they’d reached Staunton, Virginia.
