A cause we can all get behind.
Wearing nothing but short shorts, group of Marines and veterans set out on a 13-mile hike on Saturday in San Diego in a bid to raise awareness about military suicides.
The vets set out from South Mission Beach Jetty wearing what's known as "silkies" -- short shorts that had them turning a lot of heads.
The guys say they plan to walk 22 kilometers carrying 22 kilograms (over 48 pounds) on their backs in a bid to draw attention to the 22 ex-service men and women who die from suicide each day.
“Imagine a pub crawl with all your Marine buddies wearing nothing but silkies and rucks on the most crowded and beautiful boardwalk in California. That’s what’s going on here,” the event's Facebook page says.
