Army Sergeant Travis Mills had two options when returning from Afghanistan limbless after sustaining critical injuries from an IED. He could have slipped into depression and suicide or faced his challenges head-on and use his tragic circumstance to help others. This go-getter not only created a foundation helping injured veterans around the country but launched a veterans retreat and produced a documentary called Travis: A Soldier’s Story which exudes the definition of patriotism.
