So what exactly happened to Jake in the war? I gathered he's impotent, but after reading the reviews people have left I now have a sense of morbid curiosity lol - Hemingway never said anything explicitly, but was the injury somehow based in truth, and we know what was supposed to have happened?

It sounds like he was in a plane that crashed in Italy . . . that's really the most specific reference to his accident that I can place, and the book never details his injury fully.
