TYNDALL, AFB, Fla. - Air Force Wounded Warrior Master Sgt. Kenneth Guinn, a 325th Civil Engineering Squadron Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Logistics section chief, has been selected to participate in the 2018 Warrior Games in track, field, archery, power-lifting, sitting volleyball and wheelchair basketball. The games will be in June at the Air Force Academy in Colorado. Guinn will be in the opening ceremony of the Wounded Warrior Games alongside 39 AF team members who were selected from more than 300 applicants. “It is like going into battle again with 39 other brothers and sisters,” said Guinn. “We compete, train … (and ) do everything together … as part of a team.” The WWP reached out to Guinn after he sustained injuries to both knees while deployed in Afghanistan. He started running competitively in 2017, won every race in his classification, and set three new records. (Source: 325th Fighter Wing 05/18/18)
