By Associated Press

Fort Campbell, KY – A former Fort Campbell helicopter pilot isn't slowing down even after a crash in Iraq that paralyzed his legs. Starting September 11th, retired Chief Warrant Officer Five Gary Linfoot will join other wounded veterans in the Ride 2 Recovery 9-11 Challenge. He'll use his arms to pedal a modified bicycle about 530 miles from New York to Washington.
