U.S. Army Cpl. Isaac Jensen, a combat medic on his first deployment, who lost both legs and suffered a severe arm injury including irreversible nerve damage to his left arm, Nov. 9, 2008, when two one-hundred pound bombs detonated within close range in Malalah, Iraq. Jensen suffered a compound fracture of his wrist but using one hand, managed to place tourniquets on the soldier closest to him and administer morphine. Attempting to stand to search for his other comrade, he realized both of his legs were mangled and unusable so he began dragging himself on his stomach using his uninjured arm to reach his severely injured teammate. Only after placing tourniquets on the arm and leg of this soldier, did Jensen treat his own injuries, placing tourniquets on three of his own limbs.
