Lieutenant Col. John Osborne (middle) shakes hands with Sgt. Johnathan Gould (right) shortly after he received the Purple Heart Medal aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, N.C., March 11, 2014. Gould’s team struck an Improvised Explosive Device during a recovery mission for two vehicles from the Republic of Georgia. Four members of the team suffered traumatic brain injuries, including Gould. “The incident was surreal, it was kind of scary at first, but we had to act, so we did what we all are trained to do,” said Gould.
