Temecula, CA

Mission Accomplished on June 14, 2015

On Nov. 30, 2011, during his first deployment, Army Specialist Geoffrey Quevedo was serving in Afghanistan when he lost his left leg below the knee and his left arm below the elbow in an improvised explosive device (IED) blast.

He was airlifted to Landstuhl, Germany, where he was stabilized. Since his injury, Geoff has undergone various rehabilitative and physical therapies.

Geoff is a proud parent to three children. He attends online school at Grand Canyon University, where he is pursuing a master’s degree in trauma counseling.

An avid golfer, Geoff also enjoys running, hunting, shooting, fishing, soccer and snowboarding. Since moving into his HFOT home, he has embraced running and often competes in races with Team HFOT. He remains active with many Veteran nonprofits, including Homes For Our Troops, and regularly participates in shooting, fishing and hunting trips.

Geoff is grateful to HFOT donors and supporters for honoring him and other Veterans for their service and sacrifice.
