Wounded soldier CPL Brandon Walden was given a hero’s welcome by Nevada County in his home town of Penn Valley, California. CPL Walden was serving in Afghanistan on July 3, 2012 when a terrorist disguised in an Afghan National Security Forces uniform shot him and four other squad members at close range with an automatic weapon, severely wounding them with multiple hits to each. Since then CPL Walden has been recuperating at Fort Sam Houston, Texas, where his mother Laura Cummins and Fiancée Raina Sedano have been with him. After a short Thanksgiving visit they returned to Texas for continued rehabilitation. The photographs here were taken by our daughter Barbara Heninger, with permission given to post them here and also in a slide show. I've designed these pages such that when you click on a photo the larger version used in the slide show (sometimes much larger) opens in a separate tab where you can view it and, if desired, download it by right-clicking on the image and following the option indicated in the resulting drop-down menu. You will probably want to return to this page by closing the added tab, so as to not have too many active tabs. Barbara releases the photos to you for any non-commercial use. For your convenience, there are page links at the top and bottom of each page to assist in looking for specific photos: |
