Dana Bowman , Founder,
Board of Directors |
|
Dana was a member of the U.S. Army Golden Knights skydiving team. During a routine training exercise over Yuma, Arizona the unthinkable happened. Dana and his partner were practicing the maneuver called the Diamond Track, which with smoke the two would etch out a diamond shape in the sky. As the two skydivers completed the bottom half of the "diamond" they collided in mid-air at around 300 mph. Both of Dana's legs were severed instantly and the impact claimed the life of his best friend and partner.
Dana has worked to change the life of other amputees every day since his accident.
