After volunteering to swap duties with a comrade, SPC Wells was injured while driving a Stryker vehicle on a routine refueling mission. Following a lead vehicle, SPC Wells was passing through an Iraqi Army checkpoint when 4 Explosively Formed Penetrators (EFP’s) were detonated, immobilizing the Stryker vehicle.
