We had some tankman, who had to cut away his hand to escape from the burning tank and fought later, and fighter pilot Alexey Maresyev, who managed to pilot the plane while wearing two leg prostheses. He shot down four planes before losing the legs and seven more after gaining the permission to fly

We used to interact in Russian during our Indo-Pak wars.
