iPads for Wounded Operators

Our first initiative is to provide tablets for every seriously wounded Special Operations Veteran returning from our nation’s longest war.

Stand By the Wounded will help meet wounded Operators’ long-term needs by providing contact with loved ones and a sense of community in the short term, during the critical days and months of recovery.

Source to Sea

To raise awareness for Stand By the Wounded, Mark Gellert completed a solo Stand-Up Paddle of North Carolina’s Cape Fear River on 12 October 2011. Over the course of just six days, Mark paddled from source to sea as a testament to the resilience of wounded Special Operations service members and as a demonstration of solidarity with Veterans across the country. This grueling 202-mile journey honored the very personal journey back to health of each wounded Operator.
