In 2019, an improvised explosive device ripped through a US Army patrol in Afghanistan, leaving combat cameraman Ian Ives with life-changing injuries. Now a civilian public affairs officer, Ives walks us through the mission he was documenting, the blast, the lifesaving work of his teammates, and his long road to recovery at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. Ives received the Purple Heart and Bronze Star for his service.
