News release: Ewing W. Mays.

Abstract

"Ewing W. Mays, the man who spends his life proving to amputees that losing a limb isn't the end of the world, says he has found that the Vietnam conflict is turning out a record number of amputees. Mays, of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., who lost both of his legs in World War II, and toured Korea during the war there, said, "We are fighting a different kind of a war. The Viet Cong seem to use more booby traps, land mines and grenades."
