On 21 December 2004, Larry was severely wounded as he stood just feet away from the bomber. He is a Purple Heart recipient, still in the US Army, and a proud Core Team member of HeroToHero.US.
He proudly serves as our Military Liaison, as well as our Events & Logistics Director
Larry was nominated because of his positive spirit as he has endured the unimaginable. It is rare to see him down. He goes above and beyond to see that our Troops are not forgotten, and works tirelessly for the HeroToHero.US Troop Morale Campaign.
With the help of his loving wife Chani ... and numerous surgeries ... Larry gets better every day.
Larry Kaibetoney is the first honoree in the Combat Wounded series.
