Women After War: The Amputees
Limbs Lost to Enemy Fire, Women Forge a New Reality

In June 2004, she became the newest soldier to start down a path almost unknown in the United States: woman as combat amputee.

Prothetics.

Although the rate of survival is really high currently for combat injuries, the rate of loss of limbs is also high due to the use of mines, booby traps, and the car or truck bombs used against convoys and patrols walking.

The doctors and the prothetics labs are working hard to provide the wounded with the best posible prothesis. The continue to develope new technology for these replacments.

Thank you to all that serve and have served.

Sincerely,

Sending women into a war zone.

Such an expression of manliness!




Shame on them.

Who are you addressing with this? And since women are generally in support positions already, what would you change?

Anyone willing to read it.

I would remove all females from the war zone.
