Enhanced VolunteerOUR MISSION
One evening in 2007, Erica Stone, founder of Soldiers Organized Services (SOS), was at the Palm Springs International Airport where she met a young Marine. He was hobbling on crutches, with a waist high cast and wrestling with two large duffel bags.
The Marine had been shot, then fell off a roof during combat operations in Afghanistan and was returning to base after a long deployment.
