Medically retired Cpl. Joshua D. Carpenter receives his Purple Heart during a ceremony at Naval Air Station Fort Worth Joint Reserve Base, Sept. 28, 2013 in Fort Worth, Texas. Carpenter's former squad leader, Master Sgt. Josue Magana, who Carpenter says played a key role in assuring he finally received his award, pins the Purple Heart Medal onto Carpenter almost 10 years after Carpenter sustained a severe eye injury in Fallujah, Iraq, during Operation Iraqi Freedom II in April 2004.
