The story is told from the point of view of a Canadian flight engineer who has been injured in a plane crash. The onlooker lives with the young airman through the whole process of his physical treatment, his social readjustment during convalescence, his appearance in public again, his treatment by English friends, and finally, his boarding the boat for home, hope and anxiety struggling in his heart. Some of his old buddies are on the deck. They not only recognize him but welcome him joyously. If the home folks do as well, his chances for a happy return are good. The film shows staff and patients of the East Grinstead hospital and the people of the village of East Grinstead, Surrey, England. <28mn>Language:EnglishOriginal number:106B 0146 035Notes:Detailed holdings information: -
