Who said it doesnt matter squat. To me at least. The knowledge behind it means a lot though.
Wasn't old Sir Douglas the guy that lost his legs while showing off to some of his friends.
He did do a pretty good job as a POW during WWII. If he hadn't lost those legs do you think that he might have actually made good his escapes from the POW camp.
