  <description>Working a corporate job in Indianapolis on Sept. 11, 2001, Purdue graduate Josh Bleill was so moved by the events of that day that he soon found himself, at the age of 27, following in his father's yellow bootsteps at Marine Corps bootcamp.
During a deployment to Fallujah, Iraq in 2006, a bomb exploded under the vehicle Josh was riding in. He woke up five days later to the realization that he had lost two friends and both of his legs in the blast.
Josh's journey through recovery led him to a new role as a motivational speaker, trying to help  veterans and civilians alike move forward with positivity by taking just one step at a time. Special Guest: Josh Bleill.
