Def Leppard drummer Rick Allen didn’t let a life-changing obstacle derail his career. Not that it wasn’t hard. Allen lost his left arm in a car accident on New Year’s Eve 1984. But as he shares in this video, it was the battle against post-traumatic stress disorder that lasted long after his physical rehab.
Allen and Def Leppard are currently touring with KISS. The bands donating a portion of the proceeds to the USO and other military non-profits that help transitioning troops.
You can see the guys from KISS talking about their commitment to helping veterans get hired in the video below. And check out KISS’s website for military discounts at their remaining tour stops this summer.
You can help our heroes with the little things that will mean so much this year like a phone call home, comfort foods or a place to relax.
