Thank you.

Hey,

 

You are the one who posted the picture.  I only asked if you would care to
share the story behind it.  Meaning, what happened to you?

 

Don't get so sensitive over nothing, if you don't want to share, that's ok.
For someone who purposefully tries to diminish others you sure get huffy
over nothing when someone asks you a question.

Three months in the Wuerzburg Universitat Hospital followed by two months in
the Army Hospital, Wuerzburg (total of 11 operations) and off to San Diego
for reconstructive surgery.

 

It is not a "story", dick.

 

Enough said.

While we are sharing pictures, dick -

 

Here is a photo taken on December 21, 1986 at the US Army Hospital,
Landstuhl.

 

Ten guesses who that is standing on the loading dock as he was being
medevac'd to the Balboa Naval Hospital in San Diego.
