11 | Haley | Corrigan | m | Anderson enlisted in the United States Army in April 2001. His deployment date was on September 11, 2001. He served two tours of duty in Iraq. Anderson was stationed in Baghdad. Anderson earned the title of Sergeant in the Military Police. While in Iraq, he led police training courses. On October 23, 2005, while taking his unit commander on a routine mission to visit Iraqi police stations, Anderson's Humvee drove past an improvised explosive device (IED) in Southeast Baghdad. Anderson's Humvee was the last vehicle in the convoy. The IED would have caused fatal damage if they were traveling at 30 miles per hour, but they were traveling at only 5 miles per hour. Anderson says he was awake for the entire ordeal. Due to the impact of the explosion, Anderson spun backwards in his seat, and lost both his legs and left hand immediately. Adding to his injuries, Anderson's right lung collapsed when the bomb hit. He tried swatting a fly from his face when he realized he no longer had his left hand. He credits his smoking habit for saving his right hand. Anderson said he usually has both hands on the steering wheel, but because he was smoking, he only had his left hand resting on the wheel. Immediately after learning about the severity of his wounds, Anderson cracked a joke to his friends.
