Walking Again

Walking Again by author JP Lane. Tactical 16 Publishing.

Justin “JP” Lane joined the U.S. Army in 2008 at the age of 20 years old. Like most young men after watching the Twin Towers fall in 2001, JP knew he wanted to join the military when he was old enough to do so.

As a combat engineer, he was deployed to Afghanistan as a Specialist with the 428th Engineer Company in October 2010 to search for IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices). On July 2nd, 2011, his RG31 truck was penetrated by a 200lb IED while on a mission. He was in a coma for 6 weeks, having 26 injuries and 28 surgeries – changing his life forever. JP is a double amputee and the doctors told him he wasn’t going to do many things like use prosthetics because his legs were so badly damaged or speak properly again because of a tracheotomy. He has proven them wrong.

JP will tell you he joined the Army to serve and protect the American people, and by the grace of God, he still does. He promotes post-traumatic growth to combat wounded veterans and others across the country, helping them build a mindset to ‘never give up, never surrender’. He is an inspirational speaker and performer of music. His journey of faith, determination, and love of life is inspiring.

Walking Again by author JP Lane. Tactical 16 Publishing.In his book, Walking Again, JP Lane, a native of Ohio, hopes to give readers strength and courage through his testimony and help others find purpose in their lives, knowing that God is always on their side. He offers a candid view of how his devastating injuries affected not only him but his entire family. This heart-wrenching account of the process of learning to walk and talk again at the age of 23 is a story of hope and healing as only a double amputee can tell it.

JP is an inspirational speaker and performer of music. His journey of faith, determination, and love of life is inspiring.

“Courage is a word we use to describe how we have our fears. But what word do we use to describe a devastating injury sustained in combat by a soldier who had already proven his courage? Justin Lane, like many other American military heroes, drew from the depths of his soul to overcome his wounds, that included the loss of both legs. To me, the word courage doesn’t begin to describe how this warrior was able to face his future. Read his amazing story and find out exactly what he went through. I’m proud to call him friend.” Lee Greenwood

  1. Alicia S.

    As a long-time friend of the author and a fellow military retiree, I was beyond excited to hear that Robert Charleston was publishing his debut novel: the first half of a two-part story. He has always had a way with words, and the book did not disappoint. I read it in one sitting! The first chapter pulls you in, jumping right into the action. The following chapters, told in alternating perspectives of the two protagonists Rick and Jen, bring you along for the ride as we learn the background of how we ended up ‘here.’ I quickly grew invested in the characters and wanted to know what was going to happen next. Each storyline was compelling, and I really appreciated the way that he captured military life with its streaks of monotony interspersed with days that can change your life forever. And while the book does have a love story between two people at its core, it is also about love for country, friends, and fellow servicemembers. The ending will absolutely leave you craving for the second book to be published!
