Show detail Hide detail

Video production of the War Amputations of Canada highlighting the success of their Child Amputation Service (CHAMPS), a "legacy" of the War Amputation's rehabilitation work with World War II veteran amputees. This production, conceived as a "tribute commemorating the 40th anniversary of VE Day and the International Youth Year", features child amputees Chrystal Leary and Louis Leduc, members of the CHAMPS program. Together they visit the National War Museum and lay a wreath at the war memorial in Ottawa. An historical overview of the work of the War Amputations is revealed through the use of archival newsreels depicting Canadian soldiers arriving in Britain in preparation for the invasion of Europe, battle scenes of the invasion, Prime Minister Churchill announcing Germany's surrender and wounded Canadian soldiers, many of them missing limbs, returning to Canada. Throughout the production handicapped children who have benefited from the CHAMPS artificial program are seen enjoying skiing, baseball, swimming and many other sports while background music featuring the award-winning "playsafe" songs emphasize the prevention of childhood accidents which may result in the loss of limbs.
