Hi again.

In the film Andersonville (see under Amputee Minor) that was produced by turner broadcasting. Robert David Hall played a single amputee soldier in reality David is a double amputee.

PS
There was a low budget film titled MISPLACED (see under Polio Minor) where I played the role of a music teacher who uses crutches due to polio , Vivica Lindfords was one of the stars of the film. It was produced through Subway films. The story concerned Polish refugees coming to America during the solidarity days of Poland.

There is a book out that shows the only two pictures that show Roosevelt in a
wheelchair. The title of the book is SPLENDID DECEPTION by Hugh Gallagher
who also contracted polio.

Best regards,
