“I’ve had an incredible opportunity over the last couple years through the Veteran’s Airlift Command to meet some amazing young men and women,” said Bell.
Bell and co-pilot Mark Hogan are flying 27-year-old Jesse Murphree, his wife Ashlee, their young son Brody, and Murphree’s service dog Atticus from Maryland to the Murphrees’ home in Florida. And the pilots are picking up the cost of the flight. This is all possible thanks to Veteran’s Airlift Command (VAC).
VAC pairs pilots with men and women wounded after 9/11 who need medical attention out of state. The organization flew Murphree and his family to Maryland two weeks ago for his 63rd surgery. He’s had lingering nerve pain.
