military nurses are the finest angels on earth!! I am retired navy and was in from 1969-1989. They took care of your wounds alright but they also would sit and talk to you if you couldn't sleep. They would even write letters for you if you couldn't. I Thank God every day for the nurses that took care of me.

To me saving lives is one of the most heroic acts. There are not enough words to say thanks for what they and all the Nam vets did. Guess all I can say to all of them is a very, very, very, long overdue WELCOME HOME! Thanks to all now serving, those who have, and those who will in the future. FLY NAVY!!!

Having spent a year at the 91st Evac assisting in surgery, I can say without hesitation it was the most dramatic experience of my life. Since returning to the states no event has even come close. I believe many veterans long to experience that depth of emotion once again because what would be described as normal life leaves us feeling shallow and perhaps a little empty. Yes, we have highlights now but they are infrequent and transitory, whereas working ER or OR “in country” touched us right to the marrow, 24/7. Coping with that reality is the challenge we all face.

I spent two tours in sunny Vietnam. The first tour with the 4th IN Div near Plekiu and came close to completing my tour as a 1LT and was hit at the Oasis or 3Tano. While at the hospital I also came close to completing my stay there and while acting the fool went out and had too much to drink and ended up breaking a window in my little room. A major came into my room and threw me out and cut off my wrist band for eating in the Mess Hall. I had to sleep outside for one night in the cold but some kind soul advised me where the BOQ was and I was shipped out in a few days. Act the fool and suffer, I spent a lot of nights sleeping in the jungle and survived, unlike many in my unit. My second tour was with the Americal Div and I only lasted six weeks as a CO and was hit by an AK47 that almost took my arm off, but thankfully you wonderful nurses helped me through all that. The Doctors all voted to amputate my arm, but one nurse helped me through it all and I still have a working arm. Oh aint war great 450,000 lost soldiers. on our side, and yet war continues.I retired with twenty years. I am 84 years old now, and survived another career as a police officer.

Thank the Lord he sent such beautiful dedicated lady nurses to help in that hell hole. They laid it on the line, and for most it was nonstop for their tour. And they had bounties on their heads. The VC would get awards for taking out a nurse. Once a nurse left Nam she knew if nursing was her calling. Thank God it was for many.

I sympathize with the nurse who didn't want her son to join the Army. My father was a B-17 pilot, shot down, and spent 2 years as a POW. A B-17 has a crew of 10. Five died and five bailed out and survived. My dad stayed in the Air Force and flew B-47's and B-52's during the Cold War. In 1967, I was in college but I had been ordered to take the pre-draft physical, so I knew my draft number was very close to being called. Then one day on campus while going to the Student Union for a cup of coffee there was a Marine Officer Recruiting table with two Marines in Dress Blues. Being and Air Force brat, I stopped to talk to them. Turned out that they had a program where I could complete college and then be commissioned as an officer into the Marine Corps. Decisions, decisions. Wait for the the draft or become a Marine officer. So, the truth is that I joined the Marine Corps to avoid the draft. I was a Marine platoon commander in Vietnam from 1968-1969. I lost a lot of Marines wounded and killed. My brother was also in Vietnam at that time and was severely wounded. My brother remembers that the Corpsman who put him on the medivac helicopter said to the Corpsman on the helicopter, "I don't think he's going to make it." Well, thanks to the doctors and nurses at Da Nang, he did make it. He spent a year in a hospital but eventually retired from the Corps as a Colonel. He's 78 now and as strong as an ox and very athletic in competitions. I served 21 years with 3 years in combat, but i was only slightly wounded once by friendly fire. It was a small wound from friendly artillery. Just a small piece of shrapnel that hit me through my unbuttoned flak jacket. My corpsman said he'd put me in for a Purple Heart. I told him if the did I'd shoot him with my .45 because I don't deserve a Purple Heart when my own Marines tried to wound/kill me. In my opinion, the doctors and nurses who tended to the wounded, and I mean some Marines who were so horrible wounded it would make you cry, they deserved far recognition than they have ever been given. There should be the medical equivalent to the Medal of Honor. In so many cases, they saved the un-savable. That is beyond the call of duty for the medical corps. I admit that I'm a little biased. My grandfather was an Army surgeon and during WW II he was on General MacArthur's staff in the Philippines at the start of WW II, and he was General Eisenhower's senior medical officer on his staff as a Brigadier General. Ike tasked him to investigate the famous Patton slapping of a medical patient in Italy. I love the military, but I especially love the Army, Navy, and Air Force medical staff for the amazing work they do to save lives. Vietnam was a terrible war. The mines and booby-traps were the worse in the area I was in, but we had enemy firefights, snipers, mortars as well. Add disease, ringworm and leeches. Don't forget diarrhea, no bathing for weeks and sometimes over a month. Our uniforms rotted off of us. There was no potable water so we filled our canteens with whatever water that was available--as a last choice, we filled our canteens with rice paddy water and put 4 times the water purification tables in to kill whatever was in the water. It didn't help. We were semi-sick all the time. God bless the doctors and nurses in Vietnam.

I am always amazed of the stories such as yourself, and other's who served. My family served in the military. My father served in the Coast Guard in 1946, his sister a WAC, and brother Navy in WWIi. The cousin's three brother's in the Air Force. One cousin was stationed at the Air Force Base in Saigon. He did share stories with me. These nurses were strong, brave with compassion. I agree that these women should receive a Medal of Honor. How could it be done? Thank you is never enough for what you, and your family, sacrificed for this country. God Bless.
