While at the station hospital, Naval Air Station, Lemoore, CA in 1964, i changed a leg cast for a Naval Aviator who had survived a fall in the high sierras. his chute didn't open and he landed in the snow and then bounced into a tree trunk which broke his leg. i remember thinking that he must be one of the luckiest people in the world. but then only a few months later, the poor guy was shot down and killed over North Vietnam.

His brother might be the Aggie that bought a bunch of septic tanks after the war but couldnt figure out how to fire them.
