Brian Freeman’s Experiences

At age 49, Brian Freeman already hiked the trail dozens of times. Through the years, he had befriended some of the local villagers. This former Specialist Forces soldier spent 20 years in the Australian Army, but now runs a battlefield tour company. Many say he knows the Kokoda Trail better than any Australian. He even set records running the trek for his travel company. However, he never even suspected that the villagers of Alola were harboring such a huge secret.
