2011年時有一名29歲的美國海軍陸戰隊槍砲士兵Brian Meyer被他當時拆的炸彈炸斷了右腿、右手和左手的3根手指。

Brian當時怕發生在自己身上的可怕意外會打擊同伴和整個軍隊的士氣,勇敢的要求同袍幫他拍下這張充滿笑容的照片。證明就算經歷這麼恐怖的事情但還是阻止不了他堅持保有樂觀的心態。他現在也常用這張照片激勵別人。

這張照片也幫助他日後在辛苦的復健過程中保持鬥志。

發生意外後,Brian不得不從軍隊退休,他也被送到加州聖地牙哥的海軍醫療中心接受特殊治療。

Sgt Meyer said he did not want special ramps fitted to his home or be confined to a wheelchair, instead he vowed to walk again

 

照片中他正在接受雷射軟化疤痕細胞,幫他減少疼痛、行動更方便。

Brian拒絕坐輪椅和在家裡裝殘障人士用的坡道。

Sgt Meyer has no regrets over his battlefield selfie: 'It's the exact opposite of what somebody expects you to do. So when I show it to people they are inspired by it, instead of being shocked, I know they get it'

他要靠自己加倍辛苦復健恢復行動力。

Commander Peter Shumaker, chief of dermatology at the Naval Center in San Diego said: 'It's a privilege to work with soldiers and Marines, like Brian, because they're young and motivated and healthy and they can go farther than we ever thought'

 

醫生說,積極樂觀的態度是幫助快復康復的關鍵,這也是為什麼Brian能在接受治療和努力復健後不需要靠坐輪椅,就可以用義肢一天站18個小時。

Among the projects Sgt Meyer is involved with is one, Warfighter Made, which customises sports cars and motorbikes for wounded veterans. He said: 'What we want is for a guy in the coolest car to drive up to a handicap sport and have people like, "What's this guy doing?" Then they see him get out with his prosthetic legs.'

 

現在他已經可以用手拿筆、拿牙刷,還可以穿著義肢騎特製的摩托車出門。

Early during his rehabilitation, Sgt Meyer rejected offers of installing ramps at his home as he wanted to lead as full a life as possible claiming 'I focus on what I have left, not what I lost'
 
自從反恐戰爭和美國軍隊入侵伊拉克和阿富汗開始,就有將近2,000美軍因為戰爭受傷失去他們的肢體,現在美國海軍健康研究中心組織展開了一項6年的研究計畫,幫助受傷的勇士們重建他們的生活。

 

目前為止,已經有1500人加入了這項「戰士恢復計劃」。

Brian現在和其他受傷的退伍軍人一起工作,他也希望能加入美國海軍這項6年的康復重大研究計畫。

這名士兵不知道是忍了多大的痛苦才擠出照片中的笑容,他受傷的時候還能想到要激勵隊友真是了不起。Brian的故事告訴我們不管生命中遇到多慘的困境,只要保持正面樂觀的態度,沒有困難是克服不了的。
