On this Episode of the Valor Voice, we have Justin Jordan from Warriors Heart Treatment Center. At 19 years old, Justin enlisted in the United States Air Force. During his 20 years of service, he held a variety of different jobs, everything from Cook to Combat Readiness Instructor. His most taxing job, however, would be when he was assigned as the Non-Commissioned Officer in Charge, Mortuary Affairs.
In late 2012, Justin decided to share his story in the book, And Then I Cried, Stories of a Mortuary NCO. His hope was that his story could help others struggling with PTSD. In 2013, Justin was Medically Retired from the Air Force with 20 years of service. Justin continued his advocacy and worked with The Air Force Wounded Warrior Program, where he managed the Ambassador Program. He was responsible for teaching seriously injured or ill airmen how to tell and share their stories of recovery with audiences worldwide. (https://laserdocmd.com)
