"was he a combat vet, or were there medical issues surrounding the loss of his limbs?"

I found the courage to ask him that oce. As it turns out, it was youthful foolishness that brought about his injuries. I won't go into detail, but the short version is that he was hit by a train. It's nothing short of a miracle that he survived. I think he told me he was 20 when it happened.

I complained about my typos once, and he showed me a pic of his hands.
