Article on 2nd BCT soldier WIA

The Virginian-Pilot Newspaper out of Hampton Roads, VA, has a feature article on Pfc. Jonathan Bartlett of the 1-503rd, who lost both his legs after an I.E.D. hit the Humvee he was driving on 9.25.2004. All three occupants were injured in the explosion, but no one died.

Pfc. Bartlett is presently receiving therapy at Walter Reed hospital, and the article commends his positive attitude. As for future plans, he "hopes to go to college – on the Army’s dime – and perhaps work for a prosthetics company, helping to design bionic arms."
