Martinez HOSA is honored to have J. R. Martinez as the keynote speaker at its 35th Anniversary Celebration! J.R. is a dancer, actor, spokesman and retired soldier. He has been featured in the Los Angeles Times, The Washington Post and The New York Times and has appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show, 60 Minutes, The View, CNN, FOX News, Good Morning America, Rachel Ray, Univision, along with other major national outlets. What makes J.R. Martinez special? As a dancer, he and his dance partner Karina Smirnoff won the season 13 Dancing with the Stars coveted mirror ball trophy. He was also featured on the cover of People Magazine and was one of their 25 Most Intriguing People of the year. As an actor, J.R. played ‘Brot Monroe’ on the Emmy Award winning daytime drama All My Children. Due to his popularity on this show, what started as a three month story arc, developed into a three year stint. His role as an injured Iraq combat veteran mirrored his own life. Jose Rene Martinez was born in Shreveport, Louisiana, to Maria Zavala. He has two sisters, Consuelo and Anabel, who were raised in El Salvador with his mother’s family. Anabel died as a toddler before he ever met her. After high school in Dalton, GA he joined the army. J.R. was proud to serve, as a way to give something back to a country that had already given so much to him and his family. In September of 2002, J.R. underwent Basic and Advanced Training at Fort Benning, Georgia, where he gained skills as an 11-B Infantryman. After reporting to Fort Campbell, Kentucky, in January of 2003, he was assigned to the 2nd Battalion, 502nd Infantry Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division. 14 In March of 2003, J.R. was deployed to Iraq, and on April 5, less than a month into his deployment, he was serving as a driver of a Humvee in Karbala, when his left front tire hit a land-mine. Three other soldiers with J.R. were ejected from the burning vehicle, but he was trapped inside and suffered smoke inhalation and severe burns to more than 40 percent of his body. J.R. was eventually sent to Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas. where he spent 34 months in recovery and underwent 33 different surgeries including skin grafts and cosmetic surgery. During his time in recovery, a nurse asked him to speak to a burn patient, who had just seen his body for the first time and had become withdrawn. After an approximate 45-minute visit, the patient opened the curtain letting light in his room and his heart. J.R. then understood the impact he had on this patient and decided to use his experience to help others, visiting with several of the patients in the hospital, sharing his story and listening to theirs. J.R. continues to share his story of resilience and optimism. He understands the true value in making the most of every situation. While J.R.’s experience was certainly life-changing, amazingly he claims this is actually a change for the better. “I discovered it is what is inside a person that matters most and I wouldn’t change anything… absolutely anything!” states J.R. “I do believe everything happens for a reason, and I’m extremely grateful for that day because it led me into this life!” J.R.’s story from a patient’s perspective will help us to understand the impact we, as healthcare providers, have on each patient we serve. HOSA is proud to honor J.R. at this year’s National Leadership Conference for his heroism – his wanting to make a difference in the lives of others!

Patton/HCA St. George Greek Orthodox Monastery United States Public Health Service In Memoriam Thomas Luciano, South Mecklenburg HOSA’s Parliamentarian and a member of the Executive team which planned and led the monthly HOSA meetings, was truly a remarkable young man. At the North Carolina HOSA SLC, he served as a Voting Delegate and represented HOSA District 6 as a spokesperson. Thomas died in a automobile accident the day he returned from the state conference. Olga Rivera, Thomas’ mother said that because of his relationship with God, he was kind, friendly, positive and did not hold grudges. He had a great heart and an even greater smile. Thomas was so proud of winning 1st place in Parliamentary Procedure. On the day of the accident he was wearing his medal. This was Thomas’ last ‘Hurrah’. I loved being his Mom. Nae Won, NC HOSA Vice-President shared that Thomas was someone that everyone could rely on. He was so excited when he was asked to represent District 6 during the Business Session at this year’s State Leadership Conference. He lived by the HOSA mission, treating everyone with compassion. Thomas’ peers in HOSA shared that Thomas was a great friend and it was a privilege to know him. He will never be forgotten and will be forever missed. Because of Thomas’ great character, personality and love of life, the school rock has been painted the sediment that all who knew him share: “Live like Luciano”.

Board Chair Awards Unlimited HOSA Supply Service Larry King, Co-Owner Connie King Carolyn Kortmeyer HOSA Washington Office Axela Government Relations LLC George Sifakis, Director Tips for Getting Around Walt Disney World There is a clear advantage to holding a convention in a location with free transportation and lots to do in your free time. However, with added opportunity comes added responsibility. It is important that you understand how to use the transportation, and even more important that you have the permission of your chapter advisor or chaperone whenever you leave your hotel. How to Get Around Walt Disney World Buses connect Parks (Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and both water parks) and Downtown Disney - with hotels. They run about every 20 minutes, and it usually takes 15 – 20 minutes to get from a hotel to a theme park, or from a theme park to a hotel. If you want to travel from one hotel to another, simply take a bus to any theme park or Downtown Disney, and then transfer to the hotel bus. 54 If you are at a theme park and need to get back to your hotel at a specific time, give yourself an hour. Smart HOSA members always make sure they have travel insurance. Travel insurance? You may call it cab fare. It’s that $20 in your pocket that you may need to use if suddenly you realize you are running behind schedule and need to be a certain place at a certain time. Taxi cabs are readily available, reasonably priced, and worth every penny if they keep you from missing curfew. When in doubt about where to catch a bus, or a cab, ask a Disney cast member. Mostly importantly, no matter where you are or where you are going, always keep your chapter advisor informed. START STRONG. SM Enrolling in Army ROTC is a great way to combine your nursing career with service to your country. Because Army nurses are both caregivers and leaders, you’ll develop a wide range of skills that will help you excel in your field. Plus, you could qualify for a full tuition, merit-based scholarship, and upon graduate earn a commission as a second lieutenant in the Army Nurse Corps. There’s strong. Then there’s Army Strong. 55 ©2010. Paid for by the Army ROTC. All rights reserved. Find out more at goarmy.com/rotc/startstrong.
