John Peck is an American Marine sergeant who lost both his legs and arms during a mission in Afghanistan in 2010. He lost both legs and one arm when an Improvised explosive device he stepped on exploded; while recovering in the hospital, an infection forced amputation of his remaining arm.[1] He successfully underwent a ground-breaking bilateral arm transplant in August 2016.[2][3][4]
Peck wrote a book, Rebuilding Sergeant Peck: How I Put Body and Soul Back Together After Afghanistan, that was released on May 7, 2019. Also a documentary was made about him.[5]
In 2021, Our Life released a documentary, The Man with Another Man's Arms, following Peck's recovery from bilateral arm transplant on YouTube.[6] The video received over 5,000,000 views within its first year. He was also named Military Times Veteran of the Year for 2021.[1][7]
