The J E Hanger Story from Battlefield Trauma to Global Innovation

A Song for America 250 Celebrating Veteran Inventor James E. Hanger On June 3, 1861, an 18-year-old Confederate soldier named James Edward Hanger became the Civil War's first amputee casualty when a cannonball shattered his leg at the Battle of Philippi. What he did next would revolutionize medicine and restore mobility to millions. "The Craftsman of Philippi" is an original Americana anthem honoring the journey from battlefield trauma to entrepreneurial triumph—from the barn where a cannonball took his leg to the founding of Hanger, Inc., one of the world's largest prosthetic companies still serving 500,000 patients annually. 🎼 LYRICS PREVIEW: "From the ash of the cannon, from the splinter of war / From 'I cannot walk' to 'I will find the door' / He carved hope from barrel staves, made rubber sing..." This song is part of Lisa Ducharme's America 250: Celebrating Veteran Inventors, Entrepreneurs, and Businesses, an initiative recognizing the profound contributions of veterans inventors, entrepreneurs, and business owners to represent the eternal arc of service: translating military experience into civilian breakthroughs that continue shaping our world today. 📜 ABOUT JAMES E.
