Why I get my health care at VA: Army Veteran Scott
Army Veteran Scott was an infantryman with the 101
st Airborne Division. He was injured on a deployment to Iraq. Upon returning to the States, he came to VA for help and says it changed the course of his life.
How were you injured?
We had been low crawling back and forth, and as we were coming up over the berm, I get a call from the commander, get down, get down, get down. And then you hear [whistling] boom. And everything is black. And then I came to, and when I came to, it felt like somebody pushed life back into me.
