As the veterans of World War II dwindle, their stories have become
valuable to a country in danger of losing the ideals that arose
from the Depression and the war. Depression, War, Disability Be
Damned is the memoir of one member of the "greatest generation."
Thomas J. Lee's Depression-era childhood in Indiana placed value
not on money or social hierarchy, but on integrity, hard work, and
faith in God. Lee drew heavily on that faith during the war, when
his battle wounds resulted in three years of hospitalization and
the amputation of his leg a year after discharge from the army. He
was challenged not only by lifelong disability, but with the
proving that he was still a man of ability and worth. Lee's
emotional story seems hopeless at times, yet the sheer force of his
strong faith carries the reader through as surely as it carried
him. His successes―professionally as an educator and personally as
a husband and father―are stirring testaments to the triumph of the
human spirit.
