Thanks for commenting....

I lived in Chevy Chase for a period after leaving the Marine Corps -- and visited Marines wounded in Vietnam that had been taken to BNH to be nearer their families...

It was a fine hospital then, one of the best -- and I hope it has remained so.

It still is, both of my grandsons were born there and I have nothing but good things to say about both Walter Reed and BNH

Merry Christmas!

My Cousin (who was like a brother and lived with our family his whole life) spent 8 months in a Guam Hospital and 4 more months at BNH after stepping on a land mine on Halloween day 1968 in Kaison, VN. I was in grade school then, and I saw first hand how he was treated and till this day my blood boils when I see groups like "Code Pink" doing what the Communist backed Liberals were doing back in the late 60's. When I was 17 years old I tried to enlist in the Marines but was denied because of being partially deaf, so since then I have been doing my part by supporting all of our troops anyway that I can

Semper Fi my friend, God Bless You!
