Iraq war veteran JR Martinez, who was cast in a recurring role on All My Children , was part of the inspiration for the current storyline that the soap opera is running. Martinez plays Brot Monroe on the show, and is hoping to continue encouraging other veterans for their efforts. Recently on All My Children , Lt.

But the soldier, disfigured from the accident, was only letting the bride-to-be think he’s dead.
