Join us in this gripping episode of Project Sapient, where we dive deep into the inspiring journey of Dave Burke, an Army veteran who faced a life-altering accident in the mid-1980s. Discover how Dave's hand injury led him on a transformative path, culminating in a revolutionary reconstructive surgery known as the AMI, which ignited his life with renewed purpose.

We explore Dave's profound experiences at the X-35 event, a gathering focused on reconnecting veterans through shared experiences like airborne jumps and camaraderie, where he had the rare opportunity to jump alongside his son. Not only did this event revive the bond between father and son, but it also opened new doors, inspiring his son towards a military path.

Dave reveals his mission to revolutionize the prosthetics industry in an uplifting discussion. With only a handful of people having undergone the same groundbreaking surgery, his vision extends globally to improve accessibility and functionality for millions affected by limb loss. This episode delves into the extraordinary commitment to "stay true to it," a powerful mantra fueling Dave's journey to pair cutting-edge technology with true human resilience.

To us, the mohawk represents the outlier – the person who is not afraid to go against the grain, rise up for what they believe in, and stand tall in the face of adversity. Veterans, First Responders, and those who support them embody the mohawk. When you get a mohawk in support of veteran and first responder suicide prevention, you become a part of a movement that is greater than oneself.

22Mohawks is proud to assist veterans and first responders who need help navigating everyday life's struggles.
