Great-grandparents who missed their wedding because groom was in World War II married 75 years later

Two great-grandparents who had a whirlwind wedding because the groom was fighting in World War II finally had their dream big day - 75 years later.

Dick Lee, 94, was serving his country as a coast guard in the Second World War when he proposed to his high-school sweetheart, Helen Lee, 93, in a love letter. While he was on 10 days' leave in 1943, the pair tied the knot in quiet civil ceremony in Indianapolis, US - though they later regretted never having an official church wedding. “When I went home and told my dad that I had got married he was very upset. At first he was quiet, and then he just walked away,” Helen said.
