Cadets beat streets for PTSD

West Point cadets are running the New York City Marathon on Saturday to raise money for the Trauma and Wellness Center at St. Vincent’s Hospital in Manhattan.

The center treats service members for post-traumatic stress disorder and mild traumatic brain injuries.

The cadets are joining the hospital’s “Warrior Team,” comprised of service members from Army and Marine Corps bases in New York and New Jersey. The team hopes to raise at least $42,500, but had collected less than $20,000 at the start of this week.
