Take a look at the above picture, taken in 1940 during the Battle of Britain. The fourth man from the right is the squadron commander, Douglas Bader.
Squadron Leader Bader lost both legs below the knee in a airplane crash in 1932. And he was back in the fight in 1940.
As Dusty at Argghhh!!! said, this is why we win wars. We're just too blasted stubborn to quit.
