説明 | More than six years after a blast wave from an exploding 107mm rocket threw him violently to the ground in Iraq, retired Chief Warrant Officer 2 Jerry S. Goodwin was awarded the Purple Heart during a ceremony on Feb. 8, 2015, at the 5th Regiment Armory in Baltimore. Goodwin, who was deployed with Maryland’s 58th Infantry Brigade Combat Team in 2007, was blown to the ground when the rocket impacted approximately 20 meters from his position. After first rendering aid to his fellow Soldiers, Godwin was then treated for his own injuries, which included Traumatic Brain Injury and hearing loss as a result of the blast. The U.S. Army has since retroactively authorized concussion and brain injuries as eligible for the medal. The Purple Heart is one of the most recognized and respected medals awarded to U.S. Service members. It is ranked immediately behind the Bronze Star Medal in order of precedence. (Photo by Pfc.
