These Sierra Leonian amputees get used to walking on their ?Äúnew?Äù legs. It?Äôs hard work - the stumps are still soft and movement is painful. Their instructor, a Sierra Leonian used to working with the naturally handicapped gently scolds his charges, urging them to stand for longer periods and to imagine that they ?Äú...are just like babies.?Äù Freetown, Sierra Leone 1999
