On February 11, 2017, Joshua Keller was unexpectedly shot in the neck by a negligent weapon discharge while in Washington State. Joshua is a specialist assigned to the 2nd Battalion, 1st Infantry Regiment, 7th Infantry Division. Joshua's twin brother; an Army Ranger, was present at the time of the shooting. The surgeons at the hospital credit Zachary with saving his twin brother's life by administering CPR as well as taking measures to help control the bleeding.

Joshua was on life support for most of 5 weeks, during which he suffered numerous bouts of pneumonia as well as other complications from his injury. Joshua is strong and determined and as of 3 weeks ago, he no longer requires life support and has been transferred to a Hospital in the Boston area to work on Spinal rehab.
The proceeds from this fundraiser will be used to offset the costs Joshua and his family are incurring during his recovery and the future costs of vehicle and residence modification to accommodate Joshua's medical needs.
