From Insider.

Captain Ben Harrow is a decorated US Army Green Beret. A former collegiate lacrosse player, he trained at West Point and served as an infantry officer and special forces detachment commander during deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. In 2012, while serving in Afghanistan, Ben was severely injured by an IED, losing both legs and two fingers. His recovery included a groundbreaking tendon-regrowth procedure using limb-lengthening surgery. He received the Purple Heart for his injury and earned three Bronze Stars during his career.

Harrow speaks to Business Insider about what sets the Green Berets apart from other special forces and the struggle he faced after losing both his legs.

Today, Ben is president of an aviation management company in Florida. He hosts the Team Harrow Podcast, interviewing former military members.
