BillyH Posted 30 May , 2020 Share Posted 30 May , 2020 A clip from a Pension Ledger Card is attached. I can only interpret this as an amputation at the shoulder, but someone with medical knowledge may be able to suggest another less severe disablement? This man's silver war badge record only quotes 'no longer physically fit for war service'. There are no service papers for him. BillyH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dai Bach y Sowldiwr Posted 30 May , 2020 Share Posted 30 May , 2020 (edited) That's what it says. It's not clear where exactly the amputation was performed. It might have been through the joint removing the humerus completely, it could have been just beyond the joint, preserving part of the upper end of the humerus. A pretty disabling procedure in either event. Edited 30 May , 2020 by Dai Bach y Sowldiwr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
