Soldier who lost 4 limbs has double-arm transplant

This is so Cool!
On Facebook, he describes himself as a "wounded warrior...very wounded."
Brendan Marrocco was the first soldier to survive losing all four limbs in the Iraq War, and doctors revealed Monday that he's received a double-arm transplant.
Those new arms "already move a little," he tweeted a month after the operation.

I wonder whos arms they took.

I was wondering which limbs they transplanted.

I was thinking, "wow, one arm and one leg would be kind of useless...". They have some pretty neat looking vertical wheelchairs these days.

i wonder if he will have any kind of paranormal experiences since he is two different people made into one. i think i saw a movie or show based on that. the person that had a transplant claimed they were having experiences that indicated that they were two souls in the mix, im sorry i cant get into details, i remember very little about said media. does anybody know what im talking about?

I wonder if his limbs were blown off or if they were so badly damaged from an explosion they had to me amputated later. Either way its a testament of the skill that the responding medics must have had in order to keep him alive.
