Guinea Pigs


War Surgeon Sir Archibald McIndoe honoured with memorial sculpture in East Grinstead, where  pioneering plastic surgeon  McIndoe, rescued  hundreds of second world war air crew  from despair, rebuilding faces left unrecognisable by burns. The  sculpture is by Martin Jennings, whose own father, Michael, was one of those treated by McIndoe.
