Our first hike of 2020 (that we began photographing) was Houston, so our last hike of 2021 had to finish off the rotation. A halloween themed hike blesses us with special guests such as the bride of chucky, a couple of power rangers, and of course Michale Myers (the one that made national news for having a "knife" on the beach; yea, he was a marine). #military #veterans #marines #army #navy #airforce #coastguard #ptsd #ptsdawareness https://www.iw-houston-texas-si.thevetstruggle.com/

Round Rock, Texas's 2021 Silkies hike brought out some very familiar faces that live in the area. We have been able to stay in contact with many of these veterans just because of the distance from Waco to Round Rock. What many of you may not see is how many events these people due when a hike is not scheduled. #military #veterans #marines #army #navy #airforce #coastguard #ptsd #ptsdawareness https://www.iw-round-rock-tex-2.thevetstruggle.com/

The 2021 San Antonio, Texas hike was much longer than the 2020's was. Turns out there is much more than just the Alamo. The parks we went through might have been one of the most scenic places we've seen in Texas. #military #veterans #marines #army #navy #airforce #coastguard #ptsd #ptsdawareness https://www.iw-san-antonio-te-2.thevetstruggle.com/

It's been over a month, but we got around to these beautiful pictures from the 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb that took place in Waco, Texas thanks to the people over at the Heart of Texas Marine Corps League 975. A lot of thanks must also go out to the people at Waco's Marine Corps Recruiting Station. Many of these pictures can only speak so much as to how impactful these memorials are. #military #veterans #marines #army #navy #airforce #coastguard #ptsd #ptsdawareness https://www.911-memorial-stair-c.thevetstruggle.com/

This was our second time hiking in Ft. Worth, Texas. Some of our stops included the Major Ripley statue, the water gardens, and T&P Tavern (conveniently placed in a freaking historic train station). We're really enthusiastic about getting more veterans to some of these events. #military #veterans #marines #army #navy #airforce #coastguard #ptsd #ptsdawareness https://www.pa1638205917960.thevetstruggle.com/

A Tiger King Themed Silkies hike was exactly as crazy as one might think it may be. Another inaugural hike attended, another hike in the books, another amazing gathering. Tulsa was full of historic places that we suggest anyone go visit. #military #veterans #marines #army #navy #airforce #coastguard #ptsd #ptsdawareness https://www.iw-tulsa-oklahoma-s.thevetstruggle.com/

The stop at The BackYard in Waco, Texas introduced some veterans to the, Read South Hall Band. They're performing their song, DLTGYD. It was the song that we needed to hype us up to end the hike. #military #veterans #marines #army #navy #airforce #coastguard #ptsd #ptsdawareness https://rumble.com/vsogky-read-south-hall-warming-up.html
