HEALESVILLE had the chance to dig deep for returned, wounded Australian veterans over the weekend. Walking Wounded founder Brian Freeman, who is a veteran, trekked into the town on Saturday as part of an Australia-wide crusade to raise awareness and funds for veterans. Mr Freeman visited the Maroondah Dam in the afternoon, as party of an 89 city and town itenerary that takes in some of the nation’s most challenging terrain. The stop-off was just one of many during the 65-day campaign, during which Brian works on average 65km per day. This also includes kayaking across Bass Strait. Mr Freeman is due to finish his walk on 21 August. Picture: GREG CARRICK
