Cpl Josh Langston-White
Crystal River, FL
Mission Accomplished on Nov. 10, 2018
Inspired by his father’s military service, Joshua Langston-White enlisted in the Marines as an Infantryman.
On Aug. 10, 2012, Corporal Langston-White was on his first deployment with the 1st Battalion, 1st Marines in Helmand Province, Afghanistan, when he was injured by an improvised explosive device (IED). The blast resulted in the loss of his legs above the knee.
Josh and his wife, Brittni, are proud parents of Parker and Blakely. They enjoy swimming, tubing, and spending time by the water. Josh works for the Citrus County Education Foundation.
In his previous home, narrow doorways, high shelves, and inaccessible appliances made daily tasks challenging. A specially adapted custom HFOT home allows him to perform routine activities easily and safely in a single-level, barrier-free environment.
Josh chose to build in his home state of Florida to be close to his family and support system.
Josh would like to express his gratitude to HFOT donors and supporters. “Marines are known for being tough, but I wouldn’t be surprised if I shed a few tears knowing I can provide for a family and be a productive member of society.”
