bryan Hailing from a small New Jersey town, Bryan Adams set his sights on the United States army after high school.  He served a year-long deployment as an Sniper in Tikrit, Iraq.  In October 2004, he was shot in the left leg and left hand during an ambush and was awarded a Purple Heart.  Bryan was 21 years old when he returned from the war.  He struggled to reintegrate back into society and was eventually diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.  As a current Junior at Rutgers University, Bryan's program sheds light on what it is like to be a veteran and a college student, and touches on this timely topic in a way that leaves audiences enamored and hopeful.
