It was when I arrived there that I found out what the REAL Army is. HOOAH !!!! We spent allot of time training and I learned how to utilize my MOS. I was making rank pretty fast and was selected to go to France to jump and get my French Airborne Wings. It was in France that my life made a drastic change that will be with me forever! I'm not completely sure of the details, the last memory I truly have is being in France and what we had been doing up till the day of July 11, 2000. We had not been able to jump because the weather had not been favorable so we were involved with allot of training and drills with the French. On July 13th 2000, I fell 2 ½ stories and suffered a massive brain injury, better known as a TBI closed head injury. I went immediately into a deep coma, and was air lifted to the hospital in Montabon, France then flown to the civilian hospital in Toulouse, France. |
