Sgt Dustin Hill 23 Army National Guard -
Wounded on September 21st, 2004
Sgt. Hill joined the Guard shortly after attending Annawan High School. He joined because all of his friends had enlisted and he thought the uniform looked "cool." He was eager to see the world, but after serving just six months in Iraq, his world was turned upside down by a suicide bomber. Sgt. Hill says he's alive today because of the heroics of his platoon. A third of Dusty body is covered in fourth-degree burns. His hands are gone and so is one eye and most of his right ear. His legs were also crushed.
