Walter Reed Army Medical Center (WRAMC) in Washington DC is the first stop for many of America?s returning wounded service members from Iraq and Afghanistan. Known as ?the amputee ward?, the orthopedic Ward 57 at WRAMC houses some of the most severely injured patients for weeks or even months. The painful sacrifice of losing one or more limbs is the new battle these service members and their families now fight.

PLEASE, no "politics of war" posts. This is just a informational thread for anyone interested in helping out our wounded vets. :)

Good post.

As a retired active duty soldier...... I feel the pain by that ward along with invisible pains that many suffer. Here in VT we have the VA National PTSD center which can be in my opinion just as bad.

I am a firm supporter of all service people with and without injuries ;)
