Wow, medical technology is amazing!

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?

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.
