"Viet Wounds Are Cruelest of All U.S. Wars" by Rudy Abramson, The Washington Post, November 27, 1972
This article describes how the Vietnam War caused some of the most severe wounds of any U.S. war, leaving many soldiers permanently disabled from land mines, rockets, and booby traps. Thousands of veterans returned home missing limbs, paralyzed, or needing lifelong medical care, creating huge challenges for both them and the Veterans Administration.
