HANOVER PARK, IL - APRIL 27: Army veteran Brad Schwarz combs the hair of his three-year-old daughter Arabella while his girlfriend Erica Mason pets Panzer his service dog at their home April 27, 2012 in Hanover Park, Illinois. Schwarz, who suffers from post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), uses a service dog to help him cope with issues related to the disorder which he has delt with since returning from a 2008 tour in Iraq. In addition to suffering from PTSD Schwarz has memory loss related to Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and he must walk with a cane because of vertebrae and nerve damage in his back and legs. Ten days before he was scheduled to rotate home from a 15-month deployment in Iraq, his second, the Humvee in which he was riding was struck by an Improvised Explosive Device (IED). Of the 5 soldiers riding in the vehicle, which caught fire after the explosion, Schwarz was the only one to survive.
