Welcome to the forum, Cap ... and thanks for saving my life!

The MASH medical team stopped the bleeding, pumped me full of donated red cells, repaired the bones that could be patched up, doped me up to avoid the pain, and loved me back to life more than once.

And for this I thank you. I don't think anyone anywhere can understand the job you had caring for combat wounded soldiers, but I know the beauty of your life saving skills and the horror of seeing the combat wounds and watching teens die, over and over and over. *tears

You deserve the Medal of Honor for the bravery shown day after day...and I'll bet most of the people around you don't even recognize your service.

This is your forum, too. Tell it like it is.

T.

I've been reading some of the posts, and found many of them informative.
I'm not done reading yet, but so far I've found little or nothing about the in country nurses who served in Nam.
Is this an exclusive club for the men only?
