Army veteran Stefan Leroy, a former sergeant and member of Team , lunges for the ball during sitting volleyball playoffs at the 2017 Invictus Games in the Mattamy Athletic Centre in Toronto, Canada, Sept. 27, 2017. After losing both his legs to an improvised explosive device in 2012 while deployed in Afghanistan, Leroy spent two years learning to adapt to his prosthetics, drawing strength from friends and the other amputees at his medical treatment facility; competing in the Boston Marathon just 16 months after his last surgery in 2014.
