Part 2 NYC Vac Airplane .
Humbled in a Room Full of Heroes
There are stars, then there are stars. The stars in this room aren't from stage or screen or sports or politics. The stars are Silver and Bronze, and are owned by true American Heroes. These wounded warriors have fought and bled and sacrificed and even laughed during combat with their Special Forces teams. And these stars are all here to support Walt Fricke and the Veterans Airlift Command.
The VAC (www.veteransairlift.org) works through a network of volunteer aircraft owners and pilots to provide free air transportation to wounded veterans and their families for medical and other compassionate purposes. It was the dream of one man, Walt Fricke, a former Army helicopter pilot. Walt was injured in Vietnam and spent months in a hospital, 700 miles from home. He told NBC that he "wasn't doing well, quite frankly, until my family gathered the resources to come and see me." Walt knew the healing power of family, and thus created the VAC.
I didn't fully understand the VAC's impact until I was in that room in 2010, celebrating Hero Flight, the VAC's annual get together and fund raising event. These Special Forces Operators are like elite athletes. They function and live in combat as a team, utilizing tactics and technology that is truly state of the art. And they operate at the highest level of awareness. But in combat, these brave men and women can and will get gravely wounded. The resulting loss is not only physical, but mental. These elite operators are no longer part of the active team. Not only do they lose arms and legs, they also lose their sense of self.
John Wayne Walding spoke at length about his time in combat, his injury and his return home. Depressed, confused, and not sure about how his family would view him after losing his lower leg, the future was anything but bright for this Silver Star recipient. Sure he was a hero, but how would his family view him and how about the rest of society? And what about the indignity of having to remove your prosthetic in an airport security line with hundreds of people looking on? Is this how our heroes should be treated?
John Walding would tell you that his first VAC mission helped him recover emotionally. Suddenly the CEO of a major company was taking an interest in him. His family was treated with the dignity and respect that a hero deserves. For a moment, life became a fraction easier.
Wounded warriors like John Wayne Walding and many of the other Hero Flight veterans are active, involved and even being re-deployed. Overcoming their amputations and injuries, they are striving to return to their teams and create new relationships with those in the field. John Walding was the first amputee to graduate from the Special Forces Sniper Course.
There are true American Heroes around us, having served and currently serving in our armed forces. The Veterans Airlift Command supports those wounded warriors and their families in times of need. Please join me in supporting the VAC.
