Listen "Veterans Day: Saluting The Nation's Heroes"
Episode Synopsis
This Veterans Day, we honor those who dedicated their lives to protect our country at all costs. Derek McGinnis is a prime example.
US Navy veteran Derek McGinnis was serving in Iraq when he was severely injured by an IED explosion — losing a leg, suffering a traumatic brain injury, collapsed lung, and other intense shrapnel injuries. When adjusting to his new normal, it wasn't just the constant pain that plagued Derek, but the loss of identity and direction that made recovery insurmountable. However, through the vital support Derek and his family received from Semper Fi & America's Fund, Derek realized though his life was different now, it was still incredibly meaningful.
