Lunch & Lead: Captain Scott and Tiffany Smiley
Captain Scott Smiley and his wife Tiffany spoke at this week's Lunch & Lead. The couple delivered a message about the power of hope, faith, resilience and love.
Smiley lost his vision April 6, 2005. He was serving his country in Iraq when he spotted a suspicious car. He approached the vehicle and asked the driver to step out. The driver refused and seconds later, the car bomb exploded. Smiley’s “world went black.”
He faced tremendous physical and emotional challenges but with the help of his wife Tiffany, Smiley moved on. He became the Army’s first active-duty blind officer and its first blind company commander. He surfs, skis, skydives, is an author and completed an IronMan.
