Volunteers who rip!

Each Thursday at Del Mar Beach in California you will see the US Navy Surf Clinic for Marines and Navy personnel that have been injured. Organised by Betty Michalewizc (legend) from the Naval hostpital at San Diego, as part of the wounded warrior programme volunteers come to help amputees such as Chuck pictured here realise that Surfing is fun and a great form of therapy. Chuck has lost both legs and is also blind, but is now hooked on surfing. Behind them, Summer Romero lets rip on her log. Summer is also a volunteer and goes each week with Danielle Burt who lost her leg in a bike accident.
