STAPLETON, Colo. — An American hero and his family were honored today with the keys to a brand new custom-built home.

“It’s kind of like seeing your first born son or your wife on your wedding day.”

U.S. Army Sgt. Marco Dominguez is decorated with two purple hearts and several other achievement medals. “I wouldn’t say that I’m more deserving,” Marco said. “I would say that I accept it for all the other people that didn’t get it that are deserving.”

During his second deployment to Iraq, he sustained blast and burn injuries in an explosive attack and currently suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder.

“There’s a lot of people that say they support the troops, but to do more than that – to take us in like that, it’s amazing.”
