PORTLAND, Ore. – Dennis Cater is a U.S. Army veteran, a Purple Heart recipient and a committed volunteer in his community. During his active service, Cater gave back numerous times in multiple deployments in Afghanistan helping save lives as a member of the Special Operations, 160th SOAR (Special Operations Aviation Regiment).

Upon his return to his home in Wilsonville, and despite injuries suffered from combat, Cater continues to be devoted to his community with a deep desire to give back by working with fellow veterans.

But sometimes, it’s the community who is able to give back to the individual.
