I saw a picture of him with his wound. It looked like half of his upper arm (bicep area) was blown off. I don’t know how they could have saved that. It looked like amputation at the shoulder for sure.

I agree. It looks like his arm was blown off at the elbow. How they save that is beyond me.

He won’t be doing any more “curls for the girls”, that’s for sure.

Subsequent operations will determine that.

I heard that they had to remove his biceps entirely. I don’t know if that’s something the doctors can reconstruct later.
