Henline is a retired Army Staff Sergeant, last serving with the 82nd Airborne Division. He spent 13 years in the Army, completing four tours. While on his fourth tour in Iraq, three weeks after his arrival, an IED exploded under his Humvee – April 7, 2007 is a day he will never forget. The four soldiers with him were killed – he call them his “angels.” As Henline stumbled out of the wreck, a human torch, he was extinguished by the soldier he had replaced in the Humvee. With burns covering almost 40% of his body, fractured bones in his face, and his head burned to the skull, Henline was put into a medically induced coma for two weeks and was flown back to the states.
Ten years later, Bobby’s diligient work has turned a tragedy into a life full of joy, family, and friends. He is known as the “Well-Done Comedian,” having performed at Brad Garrett’s Comedy Club, The Laugh Factory and Hollywood Improv, to name a few places. Henline’s story and lived experiences have been featured in numerous media, including the documentaries “Comedy Warriors: Healing Through Humor”, “Healing Bobby”, and “Weight of Honor”; he has appeared on numerous television, radio, and podcasts around the world.
His other experience includes modeling, acting, writing poetry, and songwriting, as well as being a co-founder of Bravo748 Military and Combat Speakers Bureau, a company that invests in Veterans who are speakers and entertainers with a mission of giving back to their communities through their experience, stories, comedy, music, and more.
