This summer Peck was wheeled into an operating room at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston for a 14-hour surgery, reports CBS News correspondent David Martin. Packed in ice chests, arms from a young man who had been declared brain dead 36 hours earlier were rushed in to be attached to Peck’s stumps. Dr. Simon Talbot led a team of 60 surgeons, nurses and technicians.

That's awesome but I bet it's weird having someone else's arms. Did they discuss masturbation?

Send that dude straight to the squat rack to blast some curls.

The dilemma is real.

I'd rather have (1) bionic arm and (1) hook.

I hope this works out well for him. The loss of limbs in war is so sad, be nice if these will work.

Should he have gotten a woman's arms so it won't be gay?
In all seriousness, that's a great story and I hope this leads to more operations for our servicemen and women who sacrificed for us.
