Then-Lance Cpl. Kyle Carpenter is shown here at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center during a November interview with Marine Corps Times. (Colin Kelly/Staff)It was Nov. 21, 2010, when Lance Cpls. Kyle Carpenter and Nick Eufrazio were rocked with a grenade blast that changed both of their lives.
Nineteen months later, Carpenter’s miraculous recovery continues. Profiled in a Marine Corps Times cover story I wrote late last year, he has continued to heal slowly from life threatening injuries.
