Viet Cong soldier gets arm back 47 years after amputation
A former American military doctor has returned the bones of an arm he amputated in 1966 to their Vietnamese owner.
Dr Sam Axelrad took them home as a reminder that when a badly injured North Vietnamese soldier was brought to him, he did the right thing and treated him. The bones sat in a cupboard for decades, and when he finally pulled them out two years ago, he wondered about their true owner, Nguyen Quang Hung.
