The computer that saved the Soldier’s back, and the helmet that saved his life
October 1, 2015
Spc. Nicolas Laboy, U.S. Army Reserve information technology specialist for the 416th Theater Engineer Command, poses in his wheelchair at his house in Bolingbrook, Ill., Sept. 29, holding his motorcycle helmet that saved his life during an accident three months earlier. Laboy is expected to walk again after three more months of physical therapy. During his accident, Laboy broke his right leg, received a third-degree burn in his left thigh, severed his kidney and liver, fractured his lower spine and his right shoulder, and suffered internal bleeding in his brain.
