UNKRA-Sponsored Amputee Center Brings New Hope to Crippled Koreans

In a cluster of barracks buildings at Tongnae, on the outskirts of Pusan, a new chance for a useful life is being given to Korean amputees. There, at the Tongnae National Rehabilitation Center sponsored by the United Nations Korean Reconstruction Agency (UNKRA), a staff of Korean and international personnel is slowly helping victims of amputation and other physical disfigurement to overcome their handicaps.
