Craig — The most difficult day in Jordan Bailey’s life didn’t take place during his time serving overseas in the military.
The day he had to say goodbye to his wife, Kacie, and their infant son, Kaeden, was much more trying than anything he could have experienced while on active duty with the U.S. Navy.
