Episode description

This week on Uniquely Kentucky we are sitting down with a Winchester, Ky native and man who fought for our country nearly making the ultimate sacrifice. Retired Marine Corporal Matthew Bradford lives by the motto "No Legs, No Vision, No Problem." During the month in which we celebrate Veterans Day we wanted to take a moment to talk with Bradford, to learn of the combat mission that took not only his legs, but also his vision and tried to take his life. Bradford survived an improvised explosive attack, his battle back from his injuries was long and grueling, but he now spends his days traveling the country talking with other veterans to spread his message of hope. Bradford who moved back to Kentucky, has never let his injures stop him. He has run marathons, climbed Mt. Rainier and in 2010 he re-enlisted as the first blind, double amputee in the military. His story is one of hope, perseverance and determination and he is one of countless veterans we can thank for our freedom here at home.
