Just what I needed SGT (Join to see), you had me in tears. I ran into a lot of nurses in Vietnam, not that I ever needed one but I hauled the pilots over to the 91st Evac Hospital in Chu Lai where they'd hang out with the nurses and do who knows what while I went and got drunk until it was time to pick them up again. They were and are still a gerat bunch of women warriors.

SFC William Farrell thank you... hopefully they were "Healing" tears.

On a different note... when I saw this "78K views 3 years ago" on the post... I wondered why those women looked so young & I looked so old...LOL... The 1989 interview date didn't even register...DUH...
