Sergeant Daniel Rose
Military Branch: United States Army
Location: Denver, Co
Build Completion: TBD
Sergeant Daniel Rose’s story is rooted in his family’s legacy and the environment that nurtured his sense of duty and service. Growing up near Fort McCoy and idolizing his grandfathers – one a Veteran of World War II, Korea, and Vietnam – he felt a strong pull towards the military. Enlisting was a natural progression for him after high school. After his initial training, he balanced his college education with his responsibilities in the reserves, culminating in his voluntary deployment in 2010.
Upon volunteering, SGT Rose underwent extensive training to reclassify as a combat engineer so that he could deploy to Afghanistan, where he served for seven months. On April 27, 2011, while clearing a new route of IEDs, one detonated and sent his truck flying apart. He was flown to Germany and then to Walter Reed for spinal fusion surgery. Despite the spinal fusion, the injuries left him paralyzed from the chest down. With unwavering determination, he navigated a new journey, embraced change, and worked to renew his independence.
Five years after his injury, SGT Rose found a new sense of hope through the use of an exoskeleton suit that allowed him to walk. His personal life flourished as well, meeting his wife Lisa and getting married and having their daughter. His commitment to service continues through his active involvement with a nonprofit and his everyday life. SGT Rose is looking forward to a home where he can live comfortably, maintain his independence, and grow with his young family.
