Jayd Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Sgt.Will Sheppard, our youngest son served from 1998 to 2009 in the U.S.Army. He was wounded in Iraq in 2004, He continued to serve his country for another 5yr's, until he could no longer preform his military duties due to wounds incurred in Iraq, at which time he was discharged with full honors. 3 day's ago in Germany he went through *Experimental disc [back] surgery*. He's doing Great, going to his German home tomorrow. This photo was taken in 2006 in Iraq right after he received his *Purple Heart* Love him....

danmcq Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I salute your Son "Sgt.Will Sheppard"! What a fine person he is to have sacrificed much to try and help maintain a safer world for all. I wish him my best and hope the results of that surgery restore him back to a more normal life with more physical freedom. It is always so heartbreaking to see our young ones suffer a debilitating injury that will affect them at the very peak and most enjoyable times of their lives. Please keep us updated on his progress. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
