COT: Sgt. Loredo’s death is not the end of this hero WOD. His wife, who was in the Army also, was tapped by the Army to develop a course on resilience after Eddie’s death. Through the grieving process and subsequent work, she has helped thousands of soldiers and their families deal with physical, mental, and emotional trauma through the resilience course. More to come in the near future from F3-Ralph in St. Louis (Matt Crossman) who plans to publish Loredo’s story.
