    SGT James Bell

    By trishbell123  |  Posted February 20, 2013  |  Fort Riley, Kansas
     
    My husband, SGT James Bell, U.S. Army, is from Tracy City, TN and serving active duty at Fort Riley, KS with 1st CAB, Charlie Company "Dust Off" as a Medevac Crew Chief. He previously served at the Korengal Valley Oupost in Afghanistan with 4th Infantry Division, where he was wounded by a grenade round that hit just several feet away from him. He survived with nine shrapnel wounds and was awarded the Purple Heart. We have two daughters - 9 year old Isa and 4 month old Lottie. SGT Bell is currently training for upcoming deployment back to Afghanistan. He is my best friend and a Godly husband and father. He serves the Lord, as well as our country. I love him and I am so proud of my brave hero who has given so much and loves with all he has.
