He was a 22-year-old on guard duty, inspecting U.S. Army fighting vehicles' hatches, when he backed into that cable.
"My brain has chosen to block it out," Paul Miosek says.
Six weeks later, he awoke from a coma. More than two years later, he was released from the last of five hospitals, an amputee who lost both legs and suffered brain injuries that impair his vision (it is still double in his right eye), motor movement, information processing and speech. He had to relearn how to do everything.
Today Miosek is a husband, a father, and he participates in Tae Kwon Do.
