Adaptive Motorsports & Wellness has been invited to provide access to the World's only "Arrive & Drive" 33 disabled vets from ARMY-NAVY-AIR FORCE-MARINES-NATIONAL GUARD & Boston Marathon Bombing Survivor with various levels of physical challenges -blind or visually impaired, burn victims, amputees, and paralysis- that otherwise would not be able to participate in driving experiences.One of the severely injured soldiers is a household name since the Presidents State of the Nation address:
ARMY SFC Corey Remsburg was on his tenth combat rotation when he and his squad were conducting a combat operation involving multiple enemy contacts on October 1, 2009. His squad was responsible for killing nine enemy combatants and destroyed a large weapons cache. During the operation, SFC Remsburg was very seriously wounded by an improvised explosive device. He was rescued and rendered immediate lifesaving medical care by his fellow Rangers. He was airlifted to Kandahar Air Base for triage, and then to Bagram Air Field for surgery. He was medically evacuated to Landstuhl Regional Medical Center Germany where he spent two weeks receiving additional medical treatment. From there, SFC Remsburg was transferred to Bethesda Naval Hospital where he was treated for acute medical injures, remained in a coma condition.
