She explains other work that she has come across after his death, including &quot;A Day in the Life of Loan,&quot; a series of photographs that followed General Loan on a typical day. Personal correspondence and other materials were donated to The Briscoe Center at The University of Texas at Austin. She explains that he was most proud of a collection called, &quot;The Boat of No Smiles,&quot; particularly because it may have influenced the Carter administration to continue to receive Vietnamese refugees during the years following the war.  <br />
