CURRENT STATUS OF ANDREW WOLFE AS OF MID-DECEMBER 2025

Here’s the latest publicly reported information on Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe, the West Virginia National Guardsman who survived the Nov. 26 D.C. shooting:

Current Status (as of mid‑December 2025)

According to multiple news outlets:

He is breathing on his own.

He can stand with assistance—a major milestone noted by his neurosurgeon.

He has been released from acute hospital care and transitioned to inpatient rehabilitation at an undisclosed facility.

His medical team says he has made “extraordinary” or “amazing” progress in the weeks since the attack.

His mother reports he is surpassing expectations, smiling, and showing improved movement on his right side.

Wolfe suffered a critical gunshot wound to the head in the ambush that killed Spc. Sarah Beckstrom. Despite the severity of his injuries, doctors say his recovery trajectory is remarkably positive, and he is now stable enough for rehabilitation.
