You may have already heard about Bridger, a boy from Wyoming who saved his sister from a charging dog. On July 9th, he put himself between the dog and his sister and was severely bitten, underwent a two-hour surgery, and required over 90 stitches.
Bridger is a big fan of Captain America and when the real Captain America (Chris Evans) heard about what he did, he recorded a personal video for the young hero.
Bridger, 6 years old, saved his little sister from an attacking dog. He knew he would get hurt, but he did it anyway. He’s a hero.

So, we made this happen. One of the most fulfilling things, ever, huge thanks to Chris Evans.

Bridger is thankfully on his way to recovery and hopefully, with that new shield in hand, he will continue to be a hero for his sister and an inspiration to the whole world.
