Retired Army Sgt. 1st Class Joel Jacobs lost his leg in service with the 92nd Engineer Battalion in Iraq and still makes a trip to Warriors Walk nearly every day to support the fallen warriors from the 3rd Infantry Division. He makes sure the personal effects that adorn the resting places of these warriors are intact and places new items on the sites as well.

Despite not knowing those he so selflessly tends to he feels a strong connection to them and understands just how close he came to being killed himself. I have to believe that if he hadn’t lost his leg he’d have found a way to b back over in Iraq alongside other brave warriors serving our country.

Joel Jacobs is an Able Veteran everyone can look up to! Thank you sir.
