Swim for Her Shirt
Why June 12, 1944? On this day, my Great Uncle Albert Muehlman, a Captain in the 79th Infantry Division, crossed the English Channel and landed on Utah Beach. This year, we not only swim for her but also for them, the thousands of soldiers who crossed the Channel in 1944 to secure our freedom. Our white shirt is our classic Freedom design, paying tribute to the American soldiers of the 79th who gave up their freedom for ours. The blue shirt shows the 79th’s colors—grey and blue—and their insignia, the "Lorraine Cross."

Every breath is for her, I swim for her.
My name is Victor Monheim and I am a marathon swimmer. I have partnered with The Aruna Project to help bring the fresh air of freedom to women suffocated by sexual slavery in Mumbai, India through the Swim for Her campaign.
Women enslaved by sexual slavery are hidden in the shadows, unseen, unloved and unknown. I’m swimming to bring their names to the surface and make them known to the world.
The journey begins now, find out how you can help.

TBD! (We need a break! ZzzZzz)
