The Meaning Behind the Challenge 22 Logo

The Challenge 22 logo represents the Veteran Warrior —
still battling long after leaving the battlefield. Dressed in combat gear, weapon ready, they remain on guard against an unseen enemy: trauma, nightmares, anger, and isolation.
 

A clenched fist grips dog tags, symbolizing identity and the internal fight. Within the fist is a hidden support network —
a community standing by.

The wings reflect the warrior’s journey to freedom from darkness. One wing is broken, showing healing is needed before they can soar again.
 

The five stars represent God, Family, Country, Friends,
and Freedom — guiding values in a veteran’s life.

The number 22 is a solemn reminder of the 22 veterans
lost each day to the wounds we cannot see.
 

This logo is more than a symbol — it’s a mission to raise awareness, inspire action, and help our heroes heal.
