Army Maj. Yancy Baer and six other veterans completed a six day 320 mile cycling journey through central Vietnam to raise funds for veterans unable to afford a trip back. The group, part of Operation Comfort, included wounded soldiers from Iraq and Afghanistan and raised about 170000 dollars. They ended in Hue with allied riders from Britain Help for Heroes and shared reflections on homecomings and healing.
