In this Aug. 7, 2019 photo, Thomas (Tomy) Parker, a 29-year-old Marine Corp veteran and triple amputee, trains and gets exercise near downtown Ronan, Mont. The Montana Marine who lost his legs to an IED in Afghanistan came home to a hero's welcome and a house was built for him, but he lost it to addiction. Parker attended rehab, is being treated for PTSD and is now competing in wheelchair races. Parker often wears the same orange pants he was issued while serving time for possession of methamphetamine and heroin. (Tommy Martino/The Missoulian via AP)
