MINNEAPOLIS -- The Rev. H. Timothy Vakoc remains in critical condition but has returned home to Minnesota for treatment after being injured in late May by a roadside bomb near Mosul, Iraq.
The 44-year-old Army chaplain and Roman Catholic priest was transferred from a military hospital in Washington, D.C., to the Minneapolis Veterans Administration hospital on Oct. 1, said his sister, Anita Brand.
The bombing caused a devastating head injury and cost Vakoc his left eye. Vakoc remains in critical but stable condition, his sister said.
