In part two of our four-part Gold Star Family series, Michelle Scharf and Jennie Taylor are joined by Emily Feeks to talk about Emily's experience serving in the navy, meeting her husband, Navy Special Warfare Operator 1st Class Patrick Feeks, and seeing the news that a Black Hawk had crashed during a firefight in Afghanistan.

Then Emily recalls the moment she received the official news that Patrick had been on the helicopter that crashed, picking up all of the pieces after Patrick's passes, and continuing her service until she was discharged due to disability. 

Lastly, she opens up about her life following her service, meeting her current fiance, and why it's so important for her to give back to her community.
