LOL

Answer 2

It is already happening.  There was an article in the paper this AM about a guy who had is leg blown off above the knee who has been fitted with a prosthetic and is now back on active duty in Afganistan.

Answer 3

I wish i could say yes, but it would probably be too much of a liability insurance wise or something.  They would probably never see any actual combat if they were let in though.  I wouldn't want to have to count on a guy with no legs to have my back. Im not trying to be downer!

Answer 4

There are tons of active duty Soldiers and Marines that have lost their leg/s and are still serving doing their job or a new one.  

Answer 5

No, I doubt we will ever see people with artifical legs being allowed to join he military.  

Answer 6

Not join, but there are soldiers that are serving in a war zone right now with artificial legs.
