Clay Hunt was a war hero and giant-hearted humanitarian who passed away in March 2011. The Purple Heart Recipient served a tour of duty in Iraq + another in Afghanistan before being honorably discharged from the United States Marine Corps in 2009. He often wondered why he survived when so many close friends and others paid the ultimate price for our nation’s freedom. In the end, Clay was unable to overcome post-traumatic stress disorder + the depression that finally overtook his life.

To honor is memory, Clay’s family is speaking out about his death and continuing HIS mission to improve the lives of wounded vets, especially those battling PTSD.  If you would like to learn more about helping wounded vets, visit the Ride2Recovery site.
