"We were able to spend a little time with U.S. Army Sergeant Josh Hargis and we just had an opportunity to meet the family. There were a number of guest speakers, and we were able to provide them basically a home that's a forever home for them. It's designed and built for his special needs. He's a double amputee. And we were able to not only build the house but turn it over mortgage free. So it's really a very true, powerful, moving experience just to be involved in that dedication."

"Our unit sustained catastrophic injuries. Four members of our team died. My K9 companion was killed. Another soldier and I suffered battlefield amputations, and countless others suffered severe injuries," added Hargis.

Joshua lost both his legs, one above the knee and the other below, as a result of injuries from the IED.
