VIDEO:  The Bombs of Baghdad: Rebuilding Bryan Anderson
 
 
Imagine having both of your legs , half of your left arm and a couple of fingers on your right arm amputated. Now imagine living this fate but keeping a smile on your face while doing it. Think it would be hard to do? Think again. Army Sgt. Bryan Anderson wakes up to this reality everyday since that fateful October 2005 day when an IED left him a triple amputee. But, don't pity Bryan, not only is he walking again, he is making a splash in Tinseltown. He is now etching out a career as an actor.
