“It feels amazing to represent the United States. It is every kid’s dream,” said Jessie White. He represents the U.S. Team in Archery and Athletics at the Invictus Games. Sustaining severe injuries in Iraq in 2006 resulted in the amputation of his right arm. Finding recovery challenging, White attributes his physical and emotional improvement to participating in adaptive reconditioning sports and activities.“It gave me other things to focus on other than my injuries,” said White. A husband and father, White also drew inspiration from his Family. “My wife and kids have been amazing in their support. They tell me all of the time how proud they are of me and that they know I can do anything,” he said. After London’s Invictus Games, White will achieve another goal: becoming an archery coach, which he will be doing at the Warrior Games 2014.
