Headline Ethiopian Soldier Amputee Visits United Nations 
Caption Description Private Gabremicail Tumebo, a member of Emperor Halle Selassie's Imperial Bodyguard, today visited the permanent Headquarters of the United Nations; he is seen here in front of the UN buildings.  Private Tumebo lost his leg on the battlefield in Korea last year, while serving as a member of the UN forces there. Through the efforts of a US Army nurse, the World Veterans Federation, the American Veterans Committee and various other organizations and individuals, it was possible to bring him to the United States for the fitting of an artificial leg. The three-month course of prosthetic treatment and rehabilitation has now been completed, and Private Tumebo will return to Addis-Ababa next week.
