Army veteran Andy Reid, a triple amputee from an IED blast in Afghanistan, is set to make history by becoming the first of his kind to finish the London Marathon. Reid, who lost both legs and his right arm while serving, aims to complete the 26.2 miles in 12-13 hours, raising funds for the Army Benevolent Fund and his own Standing Tall Foundation. His journey is not just a personal challenge, but also a tribute to his fallen comrades and an inspiration for those with disabilities or injuries.
