Harry Shaw Skydives at Last!


Veteran and Amputee Harry Shaw did something he has waited to do for 27 years - he jumped out of an airplane, again. The Army paratrooper lost his legs to friendly fire in Grenada in 1983, and since then he's been trying to find a way back to the sky.
In October of 2010, to mark the anniversary of the day he lost his legs, Harry got his wish.
The skydive was coordinated through Houston-based charity Limbs of Love, which helped Harry get his first prosthetic legs in decades just a few months before. To see more about Harry's story and see his jump click here!
