PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — Linda Trumble, vice-president of Sew Much Comfort, an organization that produces adaptive clothing for injured servicemembers, demonstrates how pants are adapted to fit over an external fixator device, where screws are placed into the bone and a device is attached to the screws from outside the skin during a visit to Peterson AFB March 31. The pants are adapted to fit over the device allowing the patient to blend in while out in public. Along with all the civilian clothing they produce or alter, Sew Much Comfort also adapts uniforms for those returning to duty. Since its inception, Sew Much Comfort has shipped more than 75,000 articles of clothing to Walter Reed Army Medical Center and other military hospitals and recovery centers around the world.
