He was also badly hit in the gut. He is alive thanks to two intensive surgeries. Otherwise, he would have been dead. He sustained extensive intestinal damage. Part of his lung was also damaged. At one point, he was suffering from pneumonia and blood poisoning on top of these wounds.

Thanks! Can you post a link to the article? I thought it odd that if he only had a shoulder and elbow wound, he looked almost dead laying against that wall. Thank goodness he survived and they were able to get to him so quickly.

His pelvis was fractured too..not to mention the gun wounds as they dragged him to safety.....coupled with his overall bad health etc....God is good! He brought him through it.
Though I understand the treatment for the parasites etc is pretty extensive and grueling in itself.
They said he’s a Staff sergeant in his early 20s
