I am now going into flight paramedic training and eventually wish to become a CRNA. The National Guard has been extremely beneficial for my professional career. After 12 years I am...

I have suffered the anguish of seeing many Soldiers, Airman and Marines die on my watch, and Cody was one of them. I remember the night he came in to the ER, I was the RN taking care of him at Balad.

Cody injuries were bad, but he was not in pain and he was not alone. I followed the stories about him over the years and...

On Saturday I wore Cody's name on my bib for the Cpl Christopher G. Scherer Memorial "I Did The Grid" Run/Walk. Every step I ran honored Cody's heroism and ultimate sacrifice while serving in the armed forces of the United States of America. I completed all three events and rang the bell each time in his memory. Team Chris wants you to know how much we all appreciate and remember our Fallen.
