Excerpt: Adrian Maldonado, Jr., now can laugh about the night he spent soaking wet, wearing a makeshift poncho jerry-rigged from a garbage bag, hanging out with a former Navy medic and a New York Times reporter. It was miserable then, but its kind of funny when you look back at it, said Maldonado, a former corporal in the Marines who returned from his second tour in Iraq in 2004. Maldonado's damp experience took place during and Outward Bound program focused on helping returning veterans re-acclimate to civilian life. Outward Bound runs programs that seek to inspire character development and self-confidence in its participants through wilderness challenges, such as ropes courses, rock climbing, canoeing, backpacking and group activities. They work with children, teenagers, adults and veterans.

Excerpt: The nine men who climbed to the summit of the Colorado mountain were combat veterans who had fought in Iraq, Afghanistan and Vietnam. Several knew the pain of bullets tearing through flesh. Others couldn't gather memories blown away by an explosion. Some had seen combat so close they killed with their knives. They were a wary group of strangers, guarded and slow to trust, who had arrived at the Outward Bound Wilderness school in Leadville, Colo., a few days before, wondering how a one-week course in the wilderness could help them heal.
