On April 10, 2012, Mills was critically injured on his third tou of duty in Afghanistan by an IED (improvised explosive device) while on patrol, losing portions of both legs and both arms.

The veteran and their families receive an all-inclusive, all-expenses paid, barrier-free vacation to Maine where they participate in adaptive activities, bond with other veteran families, and enjoy much-needed rest and relaxation in Maine's great outdoors. His New York Times bestselling memoir, Tough as They Come, was published in 2015. Mills continues to speak all over the country about his astonishing recovery and continues to astound friends and family alike with his progress and with his amazing spirit. He lives in Maine.
