On August 9,2007, Richard experience a hard landing during an airborne combat equipment operation, preventing a proper parachute landing fall. While initial x-rays showed no fractures, later evaluations revealed a bulging disc at L4-L5-S1 and a fractured coccyx, causing chronic pain that persists today.
“Everything I've endured makes sense when I see the life I've built for my family.”
