Curtis Belew

Curtis served as an Explosive Ordnance Disposal team leader with over nine years of experience managing and supervising teams of highly-trained technicians. He attended his first AFW2 event in November 2023 as part of Warrior Care Month recognition where he became an AFW2 mentor to help other Wounded Warriors in need. He uses adaptive sports to maintain his morale during his on-going recovery and looks forward to competing as part of Team Air Force. “I’ve had a pretty difficult time trying to accept that I’m not the same as I used to be. The AFW2 Program helped me to be able to find new ways to find a new normal, re-spark my competitive spirit, and open my eyes to the fact that I don’t have to deal with my issues alone.”
