3 war veteran amputees climb Kilimanjaro with one good leg among them
The three soldiers - veterans of Afghanistan, Iraq and Vietnam - scrambled, clawed and plodded to the top of Tanzania's Mount Kilimanjaro, hiking up the domed mountain's scree-filled paths on one human leg and five prosthetics made of titanium and carbon fiber. Ref. Source 6
I think that the fact that they wanted to climb this mountain and have accomplished that shows the will and the pride that some soldiers have even if some one wants to try and put a label on them. Not many people around where I live know that I am disabled and I like to keep it that way. I get enough looks from the ones that do know.
