In this June 15, 2017 photo, Travis Mills sits on his couch in Manchester, Maine. Mills, a U.S. Army staff sergeant, awoke in a hospital on his 25th birthday to learn that an explosion in Afghanistan had robbed him of all four limbs. He later told his wife to take their daughter and their belongings, and just go. He didn’t want her saddled with his burden. "She assured me that's not how this works,” Mills said, “and she stayed by my side. This week Mills is opening a summer retreat to Maine to help others like him who have suffered severe war injuries." (AP Photo/Elise Amendola)
