WASHINGTON, Oct. 7, 2006 – Two Army combat veterans who both lost something dear in the war against terrorism say they are determined to keep on battling, and proving it as they prepare to run the Army 10-Miler race tomorrow.
In December 2005, Spc. James Stuck was wounded by an improvised explosive device blast in Kirkuk, Iraq. His right leg was later amputated at mid-shin. Spc. Joseph Keck, an Afghanistan veteran, lost his lower left arm just below his elbow after being injured in an IED explosion near Kandahar in July.
