NATE HANNA (4), Mark “Mick” Hanna (3), Pat [Nles] Hanna (2), Margaret [Pendleton] Niles (1).29, Oct 2011: Nate (pictured) has been serving his first tour in Afghanistan.
On October 18th, Nate received serious injuries to his left arm from an RPG attack. He was transported to Germany, and then to Fort Sam Houston in Texas, where he is currently undergoing more surgeries to repair his arm. His injuries are not life threatening now, but he has already had five surgeries and skin grafts. It is unknown what more will need to be done. It could be six months before they know the full extent of the damage to the nerves…the bones will mend (with the plates and pins), but they are worried about the tissue damage.
Nate’s parents, Mick (3) and Cheryl Hanna, would appreciate it if you would keep Nate in your thoughts and wish him a speedy recovery.
