KABUL, Afghanistan - An ISAF soldier from the Sharana Provincal Reconstruction Team (PRT) in Paktika province was presented the Purple Heart and the Combat Infantryman Badge Apr. 21 at Craig Joint Theater Hospital, Bagram Air Field.
Army Maj. Gen. Jeffrey J. Schloesser, commanding general of Combined Joint Task Force-101, presented Specialist Michael C. Trowbridge the awards for wounds suffered during an enemy ambush Apr. 20.
Spc. Trowbridge, a security forces member for the Sharana PRT, was travelling back to Forward Operating Base Sharana when insurgents ambushed his convoy.
The vehicle ahead struck an improvised explosive device and the convoy began taking small-arms fire. Spc. Trowbridge suffered minor burns and shrapnel wounds when a rocket-propelled grenade struck his vehicle near the gunner's turret.
He was airlifted to the hospital at Bagram Air Field, where he was evaluated, treated and released back to duty after a few days.
