Air Force Staff Sergeant Healing Following Sustaining Gunshot Wounds in Washington DC

A member of the National Guard is showing improvement after he was gravely wounded in an targeted attack last month in Washington DC.

The parents of Andrew Wolfe, twenty-four, report "his head wound is slowly healing and that he's starting to 'regain his familiar appearance,'" stated West Virginia Governor the governor.

The soldier's relatives anticipates the Air Force staff sergeant to be in acute care for the coming fortnight, and they feel hopeful about his progress, according to the official's statement.

Staff Sgt Wolfe was one of a pair of West Virginia National Guard members shot when a gunman opened fire in proximity to the presidential residence on November 26th. His colleague, twenty-year-old Sarah Beckstrom, died from her injuries.

"Our request remains for all West Virginians and Americans for their prayers!" the governor said.

Morrisey attended a candlelight gathering on last Friday night for the injured soldier at a local secondary school in Inwood, West Virginia, where the serviceman was once a pupil.

A clergyman at the vigil read a statement from the guardsman's mother and father, Jason and Melody Wolfe.

"We know that there is a long road to go," they expressed, as reported by regional media Metro News.

"But our belief keeps us optimistic. We remain thankful for the prayers and the encouragement from people all over the world."

Earlier in the week, the state official said Staff Sgt Wolfe had responded to a nurse with a positive gesture and was capable of move his toes.

Police have charged the alleged gunman, an individual from Afghanistan named the suspect, with premeditated homicide and attempted murder.

Prior to his arrival to the United States in two years ago, he was once a member of a special forces unit in a CIA-backed unit that worked with American troops in the South Asian nation.

The injured airman was one of two thousand National Guard members whom the former president dispatched to the Washington DC in August as part of his policy initiative in Democratic-led cities.

In the aftermath of the shooting, the former president said he desired an additional five hundred military personnel deployed to the District of Columbia.

The former presidential office has also cited the shooting as a reason for further immigration crackdown measures.

They have halted naturalization proceedings for immigrants from 19 countries that were part of a travel ban implemented over the summer, among them Afghanistan.
