ABOUT Travis

PROFESSIONAL BIOGRAPHY

On April 10, 2012, U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Travis Mills was critically injured by an improvised explosive device. He suffered the loss of both arms and both legs, and is one of only five quadruple amputees from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

While enduring a grueling rehabilitation program, Travis committed himself not only to recovery, but to fatherhood and to giving back to the veteran community any way he could. In September 2013, Travis and his wife, Kelsey, founded the Travis Mills Foundation, a nonprofit organization benefitting and assisting post-9/11 veterans injured in active duty or as a result of their service to our nation.
