On the evening of August 28 2007, a 127 mm rocket was lobbed into the U.S. military base in Kirkuk, Iraq, where SPC Reas Axtell was serving as part of the 977th Military Police Company. SPC Axtell was badly injured in the blast which shattered both of his legs leaving him with a double hip disarticulation.
With the help of numerous volunteers, Homes for Our Troops was able to build SPC Axtell and his family a home that accommodates his needs and enables them to concentrate on recovery and their future together.
Homes for Our Troops was proud to turn over the keys to this house to the Axtell family on August 29th, 2009! Thank you to everyone who donated supplies, labor, and money to this project. Without people like you, none of this would've been possible!
