Nate Nelson - Stacking Air Support and Living

Nate Nelson - Stacking Air Support and Living - United States Air Force Captain Nathan Nelson suffered a spinal cord injury from a rocket blast in Afghanistan. He has no movement below his chest and limited use of his hands. Captain Nelson was part of a special operations team that took heavy fire in September of 2013 during his third tour in Afghanistan. Luckily, none of his fellow soldiers were injured in the attack.

He was immediately flown back to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, and, after a dozen surgeries, he’s working through rehabilitation. He was then sent to James A. Haley Veterans’ Hospital in Tampa, where he is still undergoing treatment.
