LOSING BOTH LEGS IN IRAQ, BEING "BLOWN UP" | CHRIS LEVI- Iraq War veteran | Good Listener Podcast
* TIMESTAMPS BELOW***
For this episode I spoke to Iraq War Veteran Chris Levi about his experiences while serving in the U.S military in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Chris' time in Iraq came to an end when a roadside bomb hit his vehicle, Chris narrowly avoided death and lost both legs above the knee as well as sustaining a bad arm/hand injury.
Chris told me about his time in a military high school, his army training and his tours of Afghanistan and Iraq. We spoke at length about the day Chris' life changed drastically and the immediate aftermath of the ambush as well as Chris' feelings towards the person(s) who may have detonated the explosion.
Chris' spoke about the process of learning to walk again with prosthetic limbs and life after the military.
