Jim Letherer (born December 30, 1933) lost his leg in a car accident when he was sixteen, but in the 1965 Selma to Montgomery march for voting rights, he still walked the entire 54 miles on crutches and in 1966 he walked with Martin Luther King Jr. in James Meredith's Mississippi March Against Fear.
Letherer lost his right leg to cancer when he was ten years old.
