As an Army veteran and wheelchair rugby player myself, this article perfectly captures the transformative power of these Games. That moment when you realize your chair isn’t a limitation but a new kind of sports equipment is indescribable. The VA’s commitment to funding not just the competition but the year-round training programs is what really makes the difference – it’s not just one week of glory but an ongoing path to recovery.
