PHOTOS: Soldiers find healing at S.A.'s Center for the Intrepid
SAN ANTONIO, TX - AUGUST 07: U.S. Army Sgt. JD Williams, 25 and a triple amputee, flowboards on a wave machine at the Center for the Intrepid rehabilitation center at Brooke Army Medical Center (BAMC), on August 7, 2012 in San Antonio, Texas. The wave therapy is designed to improve balance, coordination and strength for injured soldiers, most of whom have lost limbs in combat. Williams lost his legs and right arm in October 2010 when he stepped on an improvided explosive device while his unit was on a foot patrol in the Arghandab Valley of southern Afghanistan. BAMC comprises the Center for the Intrepid, the San Antonio Military Medical Center, the largest inpatient medical facility in the Department of Defense, and several outlying clinics. The hospital is home to the DOD?s only burn center and Level 1 trauma center in the United States. Thousands of U.S. military war wounded, most suffering from amputations, burns or functional limb loss, spend months, if not years, in outpatient care at the center.
