War amputees - artificial limbs
`•.¸¸.•´´¯`••._.•Veteran's Day•.¸¸.•´´¯`••._.•
Wounded warriors make their way back through extraordinary courage and determination. More than 1,200 members of the US military have lost arms and legs in Middle East fighting in the decade since 9/11.

Military research, creative engineering and technological advances in prosthetics help those who have lost limbs, all or part of an arm or leg through various reasons including:
•Traumatic injuries from military combat including traffic accidents
•Circulation problems from atherosclerosis or diabetes, resulting in amputation
•Birth defects
•Cancer

An artificial limb lets the amputee function nearly as well as before. The device, a prosthesis, helps perform daily activities such as walking, eating, or dressing.
