71st Evac Hosp-Pleiku, Vietnam - Personnel

These are pictures of some people that I knew while serving at the 71st Evac. It was my great privilege to get to know them and see their grace under great pressure. In our efforts to save lives, we often sacrificed our own mental and physical health, even putting ourselves in harms' way for our patients. (removing unexploded RPGs, etc from patients, operating on patients with leprosy, malaria, hepatitis, ) I salute us all, even myself, for our efforts.

This is by no means a complete listing of those I worked with at the 71st. I invite anyone who was assigned there, who has pictures they'd like posted, to email them to me. I'd like to get information on everyone who's interested, so please contact me. Eventually I'll have a bulletin board set up so we can "hook up" with our old buddies.

Okay...to get the story on these pictures, move your mouse over the picture to get the descriptive text. That way we'll have more room for pictures.
