Dear Sir:

In recent weeks CBC TV
has been televising a
National Fiim Board
Production entitled
“Bravery in the’ Field.”

On behalf of The War
Amputations of Canada, I
would wish to register a
protest. The film Involved a

' fictional Dieppe veteran who-

supposedly had lost a leg
above the knee. It portrayed
him as a wino living In one
room and spending his time
in taverns. Hardly the
picture of the average
decorated and severely-
incapacitated veteran!

It was Interesting, as well,
that one agency of govern-
ment should be so far
removed from other
government agencies in
regard to factual in-
formation. -The monthly
pension cheque which the
amputee veteran cashed in
the film was for $363.00," A
single above-knee amputee,
as represented fn the film,
would receive a monthly
allotment from the Canadian
Pension Commission of
$739.71. .
" The other serious flaw
concerns the artificial limb
shown in the film. The
Department of Veterans

%

limbs money can buy for war
amputees.

was) consigned to the dcrap
head many years age.

The War Amputations of
Canada received an officlal
proposal from the National
Film Board on August 18th,
1973, requesting that we
contribute $125,000 to the
total cost of the film, which
was given as $250,000. Ob-
viously we were unable to do
80; moreover, we registered
a strong protest at that time
concerning the story jine
which cast Canada’s
disabled veterans in an in-
sulting and unattractive

posture.” ©
We objectad, at the same
-time, to the proposed
representation in the film of

towards. veterans, and
society in general. In fact, In
our experience with the
youth of thecountry, (and we
operate an extensive Child
Amputee Program) the
majority of young Canadians
find no difficulty at all in
recognizing the sacrifices of
those who served in time of
war. ‘
