    Thanks for posting this

    I'll pray that he has a speedy rehab ,and with an outlook like that I'm sure he will be able to succeed as a wounded warrior in fulfilling his dreams

    God bless him. I hope he can go on to have a wonderful life. He must have a good family to raise a young man like that. Nineteen, he's not even old enough to order a beer but he's out there fighting for the country. Amazing maturity for someone so young.
    Glad to hear that he's doing well.
