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

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.

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
