, a Marine Corps sergeant who was killed in action in Afghanistan in 2010, the retreats are provided free to anyone who served.

On Dec. 17, 2021, a veteran who knew Cavanaugh from Patrol Base Abbate submitted her name to HunterSeven, according to Simoni. The next day, Simoni said Cavanaugh sent a stack of medical bills she said she was having trouble paying. Concerned, Simoni said she immediately mailed Cavanaugh a check for $3,000.
