Decorated Vietnam Veteran Brings Cross Country America 250 Journey to Bozeman June 21

BOZEMAN, Mont. - EntSun -- BOZEMAN, Mont. Rally4Vets, the flagship program of the Disabled Veteran Empowerment Network (DVEN), will arrive in Bozeman on June 21 as part of its 2026 America Grand Tour, a 37 day, 6,554 mile journey across 16 states celebrating America's 250th anniversary.

Led by decorated Vietnam veteran and Rally4Vets Founder and CEO Robert Hess, the cross country journey raises awareness of veteran mental health challenges and supports service dog programs for veterans living with PTSD and other invisible wounds.

Montana, home to one of the nation's highest concentrations of veterans per capita, serves as a meaningful stop on the tour. During his time in the region, Hess will travel through Yellowstone National Park and visit Little Bighorn Battlefield while making routine stops throughout the area. He welcomes opportunities to connect with veterans, community members, and local organizations and looks forward to sharing the Rally4Vets mission with the Bozeman community.
