| Plot Summary of Rocky Bleier Fighting Back |
|---|
"Rocky Bleier had a great football career going for him as a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers. He was then drafted into the Vietnam War, where he was injured by a grenade, and was told that he would never walk again. Instead of listening to what everyone told him, Rocky decided to beat all odds, and make it back to the NFL. It is the story of his fighting back from the injury, and his return to the National Football League."
John Schwartz, Resident Scholar
