Case Summary  |  Arm broken replacing Humvee engine


Condition Arm Compound Fracture
Case Description

I spent many years in the Marine Corps,. Once while doing a full rebuild I was helping put an engine in a Humvee. Of course there was an inexperienced private working the crane life. Need less to say the enigne came down on my arm shattering it it 3 places. I had to have 4 surgeries before it was working again but I still have ongoing pain from it every day. Add that to my back problems and its a day by day thing dealing with the pain.
