When you ask former Navy Hospital Corpsman Second Class Isaac Francois how long he served in the military, he offers an extremely precise answer: nine years, nine months and 28 days.
On a mission in Kabul on August 5, 2014, an Afghan military soldier shot Jeremy four times, including once in the back. The shot to his spine severed Jeremy’s vena cava and 80 percent of the nerves to his lower extremities, paralyzing both his legs. While Jeremy faced a long and painful recovery, he was determined to overcome his injuries.
