GM3 Paul Hurley's Story

image

GM3 Paul Hurley was deployed to Bahrain as part of anti-piracy security team. One night, his car was broadsided in a hit and run accident. He ended up with two badly broken legs and one had to be amputated.

A few weeks later in Bethesda, he was introduced to his non-medical care manager from Navy Safe Harbor and Hurley informed her his goal was to head to college. His non-medical care manager did some research and made some calls. She helped him get enrolled into the college of his choice as a geography major. She states, "That's what we do, Navy Safe Harbor is a lifeline for any wounded, ill, or injured Sailor or Coast Guardsman. We'll help with any legal matters, travel, pay, or any other non-medical issue.

Navy Safe Harbor also helped Hurley get a Segway so that he could travel around campus and now he's pursuing his dreams.

A LIGHT TO THE NATIONS

"In times of war and of peace, our men and women in uniform stepped forward to defend their fellow citizens and the country they love. They shouldered great responsibility and lived up to the highest standards of duty and honor. Our veterans held fast against determined and ruthless enemies and helped save the world from tyranny and terror. They ensured that America remained what our founders meant her to be: a light to the nations, spreading the good news of human freedom to the darkest corners of the earth. Like the heroes before them, today a new generation of men and women are fighting for freedom around the globe. Their determination, courage, and sacrifice are laying the foundation for a more secure and peaceful world." --President George W. Bush, 11NOV2007
