FOX Nation Premieres Johnny Joey Jones’ “Alive Day: The Reunion”


FOX Nation has premiered a new special helmed by FOX News contributor, best-selling author and Marine veteran Johnny Joey Jones’ titled “Alive Day: The Reunion,” now available on the platform. 

Johnny Joey Jones
Marking 15 years since an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) explosion took both of his legs above the knee and the life of his friend Reserve Engineer Daniel Greer, he is reunited with the men from his Explosives Ordnance Disposal Unit to reflect on the challenges they endured.

In August of 2010, Jones was a bomb technician working in Afghanistan when he stepped on an IED. Within seconds, he had lost both legs and part of his right arm, fighting to stay alive. Looking back on that fateful day, Jones reflects on the struggles he endured and honors those who never made it home.

Jones is joined by former U.S. Marine Corps Explosive Ordnance Disposal techs Master Sergeant Jared Scott, Master Sergeant Matthew Jackson, EOD officer and Marine Forces Command Lt. Colonel Andrew Cheatum and Stacey Greer, the widow of Corporal Daniel Greer who died in the explosion. 

Throughout their reunion, the group reminisce on their years in war, the battle they endured to survive and the bond that grew as they leaned on one another to recover.

Additionally, Jones is the author of the New York Times bestsellers “Behind the Badge: Answering the Call to Serve on America’s Homefront” and “Unbroken Bonds of Battle: A Modern Warriors Book of Heroism, Patriotism, and Friendship”. The most recent title “Behind the Badge”, which was a New York Times bestseller for five consecutive weeks, tells the heroic stories of our nation’s first responders and the challenges they face daily.
