| Senior Airman Jessica Tarver, 1984-2009 This issue of MHS Profiles is dedicated to Senior Airman Jessica Tarver. “She was my inspiration, [the] first person to come talk to me at the hospital that wasn’t a doctor or family. She didn’t have to do that. She just did because we were both bilateral amputees. Even when she wasn’t feeling good she would always give you a smile.” - Army Staff Sgt. Daniel Miller In early 2009, Tarver shared her story for a video project about the Center for the Intrepid. View this video and experience for yourself the inspiration that Tarver gave to many. | |
