The Amazing Journey of American Hero and WSO Ambassador, Bob “Mr. Inspiration” Wieland

 

Bob’s story is of an extraordinary modern-day hero, which includes “an explosive” experience in Vietnam which changed his world and tried to end his life.

While trying to rescue a fellow soldier he stepped on and detonated an anti-tank mine. It instantly blew off both legs and death knocked at his door hard!. He passionately says, “I lost both legs, but I didn’t lose my heart!”

This is only one episode of Bob Wieland’s monumental and amazing story which has been an inspiration to millions of people. To this day he continues to challenge others to “always remember that it’s too soon to quit!”

Bob’s life was great as a high school sports star at Greenfield Wisconsin High School. Then in college he was about to negotiate a contract with the Philadelphia Phillies baseball team.

But the US Army had another contract waiting for him and he was called to Vietnam to fight for his country.

That’s when he lost both of his legs trying to save one of his buddies. He was pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital and zipped-up in a body bag, but he came back to life!

Since then, he’s been very much alive!!!
