Private War, Personal Victory. A Footnote to the Vietnam War

This is the true story of how great courage and deep love overcame a tragic explosion in Vietnam that claimed one soldier's arms and legs. The author tells the story of how she and her college sweetheart struggled to restore a future that was stolen from them by the draft, Vietnam and a booby trap explosion. Learning to live without arms and legs was only the beginning of the struggle. They had to live in an America that had turned it's back on the Vietnam soldier. They had to battle with an unresponsive Veteran's Administration. They had to endure the lack of support and outright hostility of the author's family. Lloyd and Loretta restored their future and have been happily married for over 40 years.
