5 Soldiers

 From Stand With Ukraine’s Facebook:




On July 24, five Ukrainian soldiers arrived in the United States to receive medical treatment, prosthetic legs and undergo rehabilitation at a Minnesota medical facility.

The next day, July 25, to the surprise of the doctors and medical staff, the young men were up and about, walking around the hospital without assistance, greeting the nurses and interns with smiles and victory signals.

The trip was made possible by the Protez Foundation, a local organization that launched Prosthetics for Ukrainians. They are now helping Ukrainian children, soldiers and civilians who have lost limbs because of the war get free prosthetics in the United States.

The idea was initiated by Yakov Gradinar of Limb Lab, a Minnesota-based orthotics and prosthetics service.
