92nd Air Refueling Wing Public Affairs
7/23/2015 - FAIRCHILD AIR FORCE BASE, Wash. -- Tech.
Sgt. Stacy Trosine, the 92nd Logistics Readiness Squadron flight
service center NCO in charge, has been training nearly every day for her
36-day, 710-mile hike along the Pacific Crest Trail on behalf of the
EOD Warrior Foundation and her fallen brothers in arms.
She has deployed seven times in her 18-year Air Force career, three of
which were to Afghanistan including last year. Except, she says, last
year's deployment was different and is the reason she hikes.
"On one of the missions three of our guys got blown up during an ambush
and they were sent home," said Trosine. "They really helped me grow and
to help me change my life and the way I look at things and I feel this
is the least I can do to pay them back and to say thank you."
