Combat Veteran Invents The 'TankChair' For His Paralyzed Wife

March 29, 2018

Brad Soden, a combat veteran who served in Iraq, invented the TankChair for his wife Liz after an auto accident left her paralyzed from the waist down. For Soden, a normal wheelchair wasn't good enough for his wife. He was determined to have his wife actively participate in all activities with their family.

It took him two years "and a bunch of beer" to do it, even afer engineers told him it couldn't be done. These fearsome-looking machines can traverse rugged hillsides, sandy beaches and snowy embankments.
