I got to meet Dana at a dinner I went to last friday and it was so nice to meet him. I even got a picture with him he had me show my leg and he shows his. I love that picture. He is fun to talk to and nice to hear his story it really made me think that sometimes I really take things for less then they really are. It was nice meeting you Dana. Thanks so much

I met him today!! He parachuted into my school's baseball field and then told his story. So inspiring...He's a really nice guy. "It's not the disability, it's the ability!"
I actually got to meet him and his family once!! I bought a puppy from him and his family a sweet german shepherd!! I had never heard of him before and after hearing his story it has stayed with me for years and years!! I hope Dana's message continues to inspire and resignate to everyone who views this video!!!!
God bless SFC Bowman!! Every high school kid ought to watch this clip -- and learn the meaning of courage.
My wife left me while I was on my second Vietnam tour -- later telling me that I had chosen Vietnam over her. It hurts. (It still hurts after 38 years.) But I can't even imagine the pain of losing two legs, a dear colleague, career opportunities, and a wife at the same time. God bless him.
OMG!!! What a bit**! How could you leave your husband when he is going through the worst time in his life. As an Air Force vet and a wife to a Marine vet who is also a skydiver w/ over 150 jumps, I know the risk and dangers in what he does. No way would I ever leave him if anything happened to him. I saw you jump Dana on tv on 07Aug09 and you were amazing! Hoah! Way to go! You are an inspiration to everyone!!! You are an amazing person!
Saw him yesterday; he was inCREdible! What an inspiration he is! WOW!! FIVE stars! (Met him, had my piccy made with him, too! He was extremely nice! :) )
It's not the disability, it's the ability - I had the honor of meeting Dana Bowman today in Crowley, Texas, at their Freedom Festival. He jumped from a helicopter and carried a massive American flag - a double amputee, and he's still jumping out of perfectly working aircraft - still active duty - this man is a true inspiration. Thank you for posting this, 5/5 stars.
What kind of woman leaves her husband when he needs her the most? That's what marriage is - the good and the bad. He seems like a wonderful person and what he has acomplished is amazing! A very inspiring video!
I am a flight attendant and recently had the honor of having Dana on one of my flights. This man is truly America's hero. He is humble, and kind. He will talk to anyone and when he does, you are left feeling as if you've been touched by greatness. His will, his heartfelt honesty and his dedication in honoring our military troops is inspiring. I will always feel blessed, and forever in awe of this incredible man and what he has given of himself to our country.
This is a strong person! i hope every one would be like him, that streanght he has doesent any one have...From my heart! THIS PERSON IS STRONG! he does what he can...the wife is a weak person!..sorry shame on her! she lost a great man!
To Dana's ex-wife: Karma is a bitch...just sayin'

Amen to that. Ugh. I guess people have different ways of dealing with things... but that's just heartbreaking...

Your wife had an accident too. It is better to leave rather than stay in a failed marriage. I must say the timing was lousy.

If his wife left him for being crippled, thats good that it ended before children and you dont need her if she doesn't love the person in the inside
