Title A name given to the resource Diary of a Sergeant Description An account of the resource <span>"Diary of a Sergeant" portrays the post-war life of a soldier who lost both of his hands on D-Day (though his injury was the result of an explosion while testing weapons on base in North Carolina). Former soldier Harold Russell stars in the film, and much of the plot is based on his own experiences after the amputation of his hands in the war. Russell would go on to win an Academy Award for playing a disabled veteran in "The Best Years of Our Lives". Russell's narration reflects on the difficulties of living with his disability and the perceived shame of not having sustained his injury while in battle. Portrays the solider learning how to complete everyday tasks with his prostheses. Posits that the technological advances in prosthetic limbs will be around far after the Nazis. Concludes with a statement from the U.S. Surgeon General.</span> Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource U.S. Army Pictorial Service Signal Corps Contributor An entity responsible for making contributions to the resource Harold Russell: actor Date Issued Date of formal issuance (e.g., publication) of the resource. 1945 Avalon Video Elements needed for streaming video for the AvalonVideo Plugin Avalon Section PURL PURL for the Avalon Video to embed in an iframe. https://purl.dlib.indiana.edu/iudl/media/653702t479 1945 health medical care postwar trauma rehabilitation technological advances U.S. Army Pictorial Service Signal Corps
