I read this story on a Des Moines TV station site and thought others here might enjoy it also.

Great story... Great lady and soldier.

It makes me happy to read this. We have far too many Soldiers right now who magically develop medical problems right before they're supposed to deploy or as soon as they've finished basic training. They then ride the medboard process, sucking in a paycheck (sometimes for years) and often receiving VA disability pay once they get out.

It's really awesome to see a Soldier who was determined to overcome something so terrible and get back in the fight as soon as she could.
