Conquer The 38th annual National Veterans Wheelchair Games was in east Central Florida July 30 to Aug. 4. The theme was “Conquer the Challenge.” The games feature adaptive sports. The athletes are veterans with catastrophic disabilities, such as amputations and spinal-cord injuries. The games will be in Louisville, Ky., next year. This was the first year the Orlando Department of Veteran Affairs Medical Center has hosted the event. Photo used with permission from Paralyzed Veterans of America
