“I am not a sob story. It’s going to get better — that’s my motto.” Staff Sergeant Travis Mills, who spent about a year and a half at Walter Reed Army Medical Hospital, is just one of five quadruple-amputees from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan to survive such extensive injuries. When Travis Mills stepped on a landmine while on active duty in Afghanistan, losing his arms and legs, all he could think about was whether he would ever see his wife and 7-month-old daughter again. Today, almost two years later, his family is by his side as the now retired U.S. Army staff sergeant of the 82nd Airborne shares his story of courage and unimaginable physical and emotional challenges through a new documentary film: Travis: A Soldier’s Story.
