Background: Participation in sport and exercise training, while aiding in the reintegration and confidence building of wounded service personnel, also has potential to prepare them for elite sport competition. It is this encouragement of the war injured to use sport and recreational physical activity as a means of rehabilitation back into civilian life, which has become the worldwide phenomenon of Paralympic sport.
Objectives: This paper evaluates existing research relating to the incidence of types of war injuries and the use of sport within the rehabilitation process.
