Army 82nd Airborne Division stationed at Ft. Bragg, N.C.. His company had
been deployed to Afghanistan. He is currently recovering at Walter Reed
Medical Center in Washington, DC. after suffering a serious wound to his
right arm and back when his vehicle was ambushed and struck by an RPG (rocket
propelled grenade) while returning from a mission to base camp. Bo's spirit
remains high. The recovery process will be a long one, and our thoughts
and prayers remain with him and his fanily.
On August 21st 2010, Bo's dad Jim and sister

to the family totaling $7328.00. In addition to the monetary contributions,
they were given gift certificates for many local restaurants valued at approximately
$200.00. Bo, through his Dad, was presented a membership in Henlopen Post
