Another excelent example...in burn treatment i thinh we actually didnt make progres in last 100 years check the severity of this burns and the end result..i guess healthcare just wants your ass out of hospital these days cause surgerys like this in todays cash would bee too expensive

Observer 2nd Lieut Norman Eric Wallace suffered terrible facial burns when his aircraft crashed in France in September 1917. Both uniform sculptures are dense with information. Back embroideries give information from the ‘Crash Cards’ and report into the death of the pilot (Payne) flying the aircraft. Throughout Wallace 1 are copious notes and sketches from his medical record describing the lifting of a shoulder pedicle tube to his chin and nose. In addition to the shoulder pedicle in place on the face piece, the cheek panels are made from the fabric of Officers breeches. Wallace had grafts taken from his buttocks to replace the scarred skin on the facial cheeks of Wallace. Wallace 1 also illustrates the lifting and tubing of a branch pedicle flap to be swung up to his face. Wallace 2 continues the story with the proposed turning of the chest branch pedicle tube up onto the face with the free end to be opened and spread over the nose, cheek and upper lip . Once the flap of ‘skin’ is move, an image of Wallace prior to grafting is revealed underneath the displaced fabric.

I knew a guy when I was in the army that had his nose reconstructed with a flap of skin from his forehead. I'd say they did a pretty good job considering that he didn't tell me the story about it until I'd known him for 6 months and I couldn't tell! All you could see was a small scar on his forehead.
