Still Standing!

In 2006, Kriesel was nearly blown to shreds by a 200-pound roadside bomb in the parched sands of Iraq,
but battlefield angels in army uniforms kept him breathing long enough to reach a field hospital. He
died three times and was shocked back to life. Somehow, he survived through four hospitals, 35
surgeries and months of recovery. He lost both legs and suffered numerous other major injuries, but it was the loss of two close friends that hurt the most.

Please come and join us to welcome him to the Northwoods!
