You two obviously are all about giving, and I can't thank you enough for what you're doing.

You've got this Shadow Warriors project that you and Crystal have created.

This is a foundation dedicated to support private military security contractors.

These are paramilitary security operations that take place in some of the world's most

dangerous places, shoulder to shoulder, elbow to elbow with the military.

They're in there taking the same risk, doing the same work, and exposed to the same

stress, trauma, and all that the military is. But when they come home, they don't have the

benefits that the veterans do. And I'm very glad that the veterans do. That's a great thing. I certainly support that,

but I think it's terrible that these people that are working right along beside them don't have

that support. You were at Benghazi and involved in that battle. Talk about your experiences there

and what impact that had on you and how

that led to feeling the need to help others that had been in a situation like yours.

You know, I got blown up three times. I had about 26 holes in me. My left arm was about

severed off, you know, and lost two of my friends right

next to me. And through that, you know, we only got paid when I was, my feet were in the

country I was contracted to work in. And so on September 12th, that evening, I flew out of Libya

on a medical transport plane, got into

Germany, and that was the last day I got paid. I was in the hospital for, I think, six to eight

weeks, another year and a half, two years of physical therapy. And what I had was a workman's comp claim and that was it.

And, you know, it really opened our eyes to what those paramilitary contractors

that work for the government go through and what they have to deal with.

Then we just didn't want that to happen to anybody else.
