The SOAF mission is growing. This summer, Special Operations veterans came together through motorcycle adventures, outdoor challenges, and new partnerships designed to rebuild connection, camaraderie, and purpose beyond military service.

SOAF took on the Appalachian 1000 Endurance Rally, covering more than 1,000 miles through West Virginia, Kentucky, and Ohio while raising awareness for Special Operations veterans. The ride delivered remote roads, mountain scenery, and the kind of shared challenge that sits at the heart of the SOAF mission.

SOAF’s mission continued to gain momentum in July, with new community connections, growing support, and increased awareness around the challenges Special Operations veterans face after military service. Each event and contribution helps expand access to therapeutic outdoor retreats built around connection, purpose, and recovery.
