First Quadruple Amputee

A soldier in the US Army has become the first person to ever survive the amputation of all four of his limbs. Brendan Marrocco was returning to base in the early morning when an Explosive Fired Projectile entered his vehicle. Brendan lost both his arms and legs. He has received prosthetics and is recovering at the Walter Reed Medical Center. You can read more about Brendan at http://brendanmarrocco.org/.
