skb_20120426__CMA8995-EditThe Poloskys have both served in uniform and on the battlefield. In 2008, both were stationed in Afghanistan as part of the storied 101st Airborne Division when Christina suffered anaphylactic shock and was evacuated to Germany. Christina went from leading Soldiers to some days being unable to do laundry or cook for her family. Kevin now cares for Christina and helps in raising their five children while also working at the Pentagon on active duty. It’s two full time jobs, but he feels blessed every day he gets to do it. Kevin hopes to share his wife’s story and stories like hers to ensure that those veterans with invisible injuries should have their sacrifices in the name of duty and honor recognized.
