    A person in U.S. Army uniform and camouflage cap is seated in a hand-powered cycle (handcycle) while a man in a dark jacket assists with adjustments to the equipment. Additional military personnel and civilians are visible in the background of what appears to be a parking lot. The scene suggests a military adaptive sports or rehabilitation event.

    Corey Cooper, an area sales representative for Invacare, an Elyria, Ohio, based corporation that manufactures and distributes medical products for home and long-term care, outfits Capt. Michelle Maddin with a loaner recumbent-style bicycle made by Invacare, April 4, at the Warrior Transition Battalion on Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Wash., during a cycling clinic hosted by the Wounded Warrior Project, April 4 and 5. The clinic introduced soldiers like Maddin, who are assigned to the WTB, to hand cycles and took them on an 11-mile ride they completed with bikes fitted by and borrowed from Invacare and other manufacturers.
