Meet the Hero
Bobby Henline spreads joy and hope through his speaking and stand-up comedy. A veteran of Desert Storm by age 19, Bobby re-enlisted in the Army after the September 11th, 2001 attacks and deployed to Iraq three times with the 82nd Airborne Division and 3rd Armored Calvary regiment. On April 7th, 2007, Bobby's Humvee was hit by a roadside bomb just north of Baghdad. Of five men in the vehicle, Bobby was the only survivor. Over 38% of his body was burned and his head was burned to the skull; he spent six months in the hospital fighting for his life, and within two years Bobby's left hand had to be amputated. To date he has had over 40 surgeries. Learn more
