Manteca native Christopher Braley was serving in Iraq in September of 2007 as a Navy medic. He was traveling with Marines on a patrol when gunfire broke out and an explosive detonated, sending shrapnel into his right eye and his brain. Christopher spent several months at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda and it was there that President George W. Bush visited with him and his mother, Debra Braley, and presented Christopher with a Purple Heart. Our annual 5k Run/Walk is named after Christopher in honor of his bravery and courage while fighting for his country.
