Wounded Warrior Team to Climb Denali, the Highest Mountain in North America

The challenging climb symbolizes the difficulties wounded warriors,
their families, and others with disabilities face going through
hospitalization and rehabilitation. "After serving thousands of
severely injured service members from Iraq and Afghanistan through
rehabilitation sports programs for the past nine years, our disabled
veterans are now yearning for more opportunities to test their skills
to the extreme, as they did in the military," Bauer said. "They can now
literally climb some of the tallest mountains in the world to challenge
themselves and inspire others to become active and reach their goals
and dreams." In 2010, Bauer led a successful all-amputee wounded
warrior team, which included Duncan, up Mt. Kilimanjaro.
