The city of Henderson wants to add more resident veterans’ names to the Veterans Memorial Wall.
The battle-hardened former pilot transformed his plight with PTSD into a quest to aid other veterans with similar experiences.
It involves an overseas posting, a COVID-19 diagnosis and the “patient” delivering his third baby on a sofa in his family’s 1,200-square-foot apartment in Spain.
The wall — a Henderson-funded project adjacent to City Hall — now recognizes veterans who served in Persian Gulf War and Global War on Terror.
