"We were able to spend a little time with U.S. Army Sergeant Josh Hargis and we just had an opportunity to meet the family. There were a number of guest speakers, and we were able to provide them basically a home that's a forever home for them. It's designed and built for his special needs. He's a double amputee. And we were able to not only build the house but turn it over mortgage free. So it's really a very true, powerful, moving experience just to be involved in that dedication."
Hargis is a graduate of the Army Ranger School, and trained to become a K9 Handler within the 75th Ranger Regiment. "On October 5, 2013, I was tasked as a K9 Handler with my dog, Jany," said Hargis in a release from the Gary Sinise Foundation. "During a night raid, we were drawn into an area that was littered with buried IED's (improvised explosive devices), and our targets had donned explosive vests that were concealed under their clothing."
