 Additional Information
What are you doing now:

I was involved in a work-related accident in 1999.  I was severely scalded by 200 degree heating water, covering nearly 40% of my body w/3rd degree burns, due to a faulty plumming coupler..  I spent 6 weeks in the local burn ward before being released to go home. I started my own PT from the moment I regained conciousness.  I was able to return to work 4 months from the day of the incident.  My Marine Corps background enabled me to heavily engage in extensive PT, working out 8 hrs a day or more. I doubt that I would have recovered so well and so quickly w/o my Corps additudes and mentality.

Retired.
