U.S. Army Sergeant Jason Brunson
"Jason, a former Army artillery mechanic, suffered head and neck injuries when a 400 lb. piece of equipment fell from a truck he was unloading in Kuwait and then a few months later his Humvee crashed head-on with an Iraqi police truck."
| Home: | Brunswick, Georgia |
| Injuries: | Head trauma, combat-related anxiety, cognitive problems; an implanted spinal neuro-stimulator is used to treat migraine headaches |
| Operation: | Iraqi Freedom |
| Military Unit: | Golf Company, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division |
| Immediate Family: | Wife and two sons |
| Personal Interests: | Jason enjoys working on and racing vehicles. |
| Current Situation: | Jason's current mental health prevents him from finding and holding a job. He has applied to a residential treatment center for posttraumatic stress disorder and is awaiting an opening. He has applied for but not yet received state unemployment benefits. His wife currently does not work as she has to care for Jason and her two sons. The military provides disability income that barely covers their home rental expense and the Veterans Administration is reviewing Jason's application for additional medical disability income. The date for their decision is unknown but unlikely for many more months. |
