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: Page
