A Special Memorial Day Conversation with Author and former US Army Intelligence Specialist, Kayla Williams: "Plenty of Time When We Get Home"

from The Hamilton Review

This week on The Hamilton Review Podcast, we are remembering Memorial Day with a special episode. We are happy to welcome former US Army intelligence specialist and author Kayla Williams to the show. Kayla shares the details of her moving story in the book she penned, "Plenty of Time When We Get Home: Love & Recovery in the Aftermath of War." Brian, on his way back to base after mid-tour leave, was wounded by a roadside bomb that sent shrapnel through his brain. Kayla waited anxiously for news and, on returning home, sought out Brian. The two began a tentative romance and later married, but neither anticipated the consequences of Brian's injury on their lives. Lacking essential support for returning veterans from the military and the VA, Kayla and Brian suffered through posttraumatic stress amplified by his violent mood swings, her struggles to reintegrate into a country still oblivious to women veterans, and what seemed the callous, consumerist indifference of civilian society at large. You will not want to miss this incredible conversation. Kayla Williams is a former US Army intelligence specialist and author of "Love My Rifle More than You: Young & Female in the U.S. Army" and "Plenty of Time When We Get Home: Love & Recovery in the Aftermath of War."
