    Sgt. Booker deployed to Afghanistan in 2010 as part of the Female Engagement Team, and was injured by an Improvised Explosive Device. This resulted in Sgt. Booker suffering from a Traumatic Brain Injury, migraines, nerve damage in lower back, and back pain. She is looking forward to the Games because it “means to never give up and no matter what the battle you face; it can be defeated by your friends and people you trust. People who have gone through the same thing as you always can use help too and by being there for each other in an event brings us together and reminds us that there is always hope and to never give up.” She will be competing in Cycling, Archery, and Indoor Rowing.
