Army Staff Sergeant Marcos Jimenez was commended for his sacrifices for our country.

Army Staff Sergeant Marcos Jimenez was in the military for nearly twenty years. In March of 2011, he was seriously injured by an improvised explosive device in Logar Province, Afghanistan. His right leg sustained serious injuries in the blast and SSG Jimenez didn’t fully regain consciousness until weeks later. “I know, I might not be able to do things the way I used to,” says SSG Jimenez, “but I can do things. In a different way, but I can still do them.” Among the commendations awarded to SSG Marcos Jimenez were the Purple Heart, the Bronze Star, and the Afghanistan Operation Enduring Freedom Medal.

SSG Marcos Jimenez, his wife Lucia Jimenez, and their five children we able to move into their new, fully furnished, mortgage, and festively decorated home just in time for the holidays.

Quite a Day!

On December 20th, more than 150 people showed up to the turn-key ceremony to welcome the wounded warrior home. Spectators included boy scout troops, local government officials, and the Patriot Guard Riders. Representatives from the Build Homes for Heroes, We Care Plumbing, Heating, & Air, and others who helped make this possible were also present as SSG Marcos received his house key and toured his home.
