U.S. Army Sgt. 1st Class David Hong prepares for the 100-meter wheelchair race during the track competition at the 2025 Army Trials, Fort Bliss, Texas, April 8, 2025. Hong shares his health journey of getting diagnosed with cancer through a routine screening, recovering through his healthcare team within the Military Health System, and being a part of Team Army on the way to the Warrior Games. For Hong, his participation in the games is much bigger than winning—it’s all part of being a team.
