  1. Why would they?  The AF is strapped for money as it is.  They aren't going to pay you to take a vacation.  I'd be surpised if your squadron even approved you enough leave to hike the whole thing.  Save your money and pay for it yourself like everyone else!


  2. Must have Chain of Comd approval.

    Tell them that you are doing it to raise awareness for wounded airmen; have some businesses sponsor you for each mile; get the PAO and Base press involved. Maybe the base will help (authorize a permis tdy, auth a sedan and fuel, or a pickup at end of trail)

    We raise post teams to run the Army 10-miler and the USMC marathon

  3. You would need to get a permissive TDY. But, that probably won't happen.

  4. LOL...thanx you made my night

  5. Why on earth would they do that?
