Description
English: Lance Cpl. Nick J. Pate, a 20-year-old Bloomington, Ill., displays the Purple Heart medal he was awarded, Jan. 27, 2005, for injuries he suffered while deployed to Iraq. Pate temporarily lost his hearing when he hit an improvised explosive device in the 7-ton truck he was driving in a military convoy Nov. 5, 2004 in Al Anbar Province, Iraq. He drove over a pot-hole, concealing a mine used by anti-Iraqi forces as an IED. Pate, a truck driver with Charlie Company, Combat Service Support Battalion 7, is now the second male in his family to receive the medal � his grandfather received the Purple Heart for injuries sustained during World War II.
