The Gary Sinise Foundation does many different things to benefit Veterans, and the PGR has been very fortunate to be included in some of those events.  The Foundation has invited and we are proud to accept the honor of being present for the dedication of a specially adapted smart home for EOD1 Andrew Bottrell, USN. 

EOD1 Andrew Bottrell attended EOD school in 2008.  A year later he reported to EOD mobile unit 3. He was deployed to Afghanistan in July 2011 with Seal Team 10.  In Afghanistan, on October 1, 2011, while conducting combat operations Andrew was in a vehicle that was struck by an improvised explosive device (IED).  He suffered extreme injuries which led to a double leg amputation and a left arm amputation.
