 Jerry Padgett II enlisted in the U.S. Navy and deployed multiple times to Iraq and Afghanistan. While on patrol in Afghanistan, Jerry was injured in an improvised explosive device blast. He suffered a spinal cord injury, a traumatic brain injury, and audio and visual impairments. Nothing can reverse the damage done to Jerry's body that day, but through the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, we can honor heroes like Jerry and gratitude for their tremendous sacrifices.
