Idaho Soldier Gets Standing Ovation in Congress

Editors note

This link has errors in the story.
Lance Corporal Randal Wright is listed as "Lt. Cpl." and it says he lost his arm instead of his hand.

Lt. Cpl. Randal Wright is receiving treatment at Walter Reed Hospital for injuries suffered due to an IED blast in Afghanistan where he lost both legs and an arm.
