Colin Pappas

Colin served in the Air Force as a Load Crew Member until a 2018 diagnosis of a rare form of colon cancer changed things. He was initially only given a few months to live but went on to defy all odds. While he competed with AFW2 in the past, this is the first time he was selected to represent Team Air Force, which is a direct reflection on his positive mindset. Colin recently received a diagnosis of Stage IV lung cancer but isn’t letting it get him down, choosing to take this opportunity to show fellow Wounded Warriors and anyone watching what can be achieved through adaptive sports and a positive mental attitude.
