Scuse me but I was an officer back then and that did not happen under my hospital watch. Did not happen under anyone I knew. We had issues but mistreatment of any patient was not one of them.
I hope you weren't the nurse/captain I had a discussion with as to why he wasn't getting pennicillen for the pneumonia (bacterial)instead of Koolaid! Of course, I was young and foolish then....a newlywed more concerned about my husband than Army rules and regulations!
