Wounded Warriors Take Stage As Motivational Speakers

Wounded Warrior Loses 3 Limbs, Becomes Motivational Speaker

He was inducted on Sept. 11. The boy who had not yet turned 20 spent seven hours in a bus full of strangers headed to basic training on that day that changed America. His nation's challenge had become his story. He was scared and confused, but also proud when the mood of the young men and women on that dark bus evolved into defiance.
