With his right arm and his helmet still showing the scars of his crash, Master Sgt. Lee Adkins, of Altus AFB, Okla., credits his protective gear, wingmen and emergency services for saving his life after crashing his motorcycle earlier this year. He had to have surgery on his forearm, which needed two plates and 12 screws to fix. He also suffered brain bleed, four broken ribs, punctured lungs and a lacerated liver, to name a few of his worst injuries. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Kenneth W.
