Which comp is for military individuals w/ physical and mental disabilities?

• A. Invictus Games
• B. Special Olympics
• C. Paralympics
• D. World Games

Answer: (A)

The event described is designed specifically for wounded, ill, or injured military personnel and veterans, addressing both physical injuries and related mental health challenges. The Invictus Games were created to use sport as part of recovery and rehabilitation for service members from around the world, with adaptive competition tailored to those who’ve served. This focus on military personnel sets it apart from the other events: Special Olympics serves athletes with intellectual disabilities regardless of military status; Paralympics is for athletes with disabilities in general (not limited to military), covering a broad range of conditions; World Games feature sports not currently in the Olympic program and also include athletes with various disabilities but without the military-specific mission. So the Invictus Games is the best fit for military individuals with physical and mental disabilities.
