70214 OUT OF BED AND INTO ACTION WWII ERA REHABILITATION OF WOUNDED & DISABLED
An extremely well-made film produced by the Army Air Forces to show the planning and execution of a program of convalescence at an Army Air Force hospital. Wounded in action, probably low in spirits and discouraged about their particular disabilities, these men are in- corporated immediately into a constructive, active program that helps to build their bodies and minds back to normal ability to function effectively. Instead of an enforced boring rest, the soldiers are given exercises to help restore them to health, work to keep their skills from becoming rusty, entertainment through motion pictures, books, and in- tellectual interests through discussion and study groups. This film should help one to realize the specific elements that go into a well- rounded program of hospital rehabilitation.
