Martinez is a veteran of the Iraq war and former infantry brigade from Fort Campbell strike. After being severely wounded in the war and leaving the army he became a motivational speaker and an actor on the soap opera "All My Children.""Team Martinoff," as it is known to fans of the show, earned 22 out of 30 points and tied with singer Chynna Phillips and partner Tony Dovolani for that top spot. The competition resumes next Monday at 7 p.m. on WKRN, channel 2. Between now and then, Martinez and Smirnoff will be busy learning a new dance routine. The first couple to be eliminated was Meta World Peace aka NBA star Ron Artest and his professional partner, Peta Murgatroyd. Final results are based on a combination of the judges' scores and audience votes. 
Prior to the results show, a special on the dancers aired. Host Tom Bergeron remarked on the "really good chemistry" that Martinez and Smirnoff possessed and played a rehearsal clip. JR, who was burned over 40 percent of his body when his Humvee hit a landmine in Iraq, has joked with the reaction of her dance partner when he emerged from his coma and realized he had lost his ear left. Bergeron asked Martinez how he developed his mind, despite the adversity he faced. Martinez credits his mother and his example to smile despite the difficulties encountered. "And you know what? Life goes on, and we are there for a reason. And we must do our best every day."
