I see a sampling of them all at the VA hospital where I work. Not many WWll vets left at this point but I did speak to one a couple of weeks back setting up an appointment for him. A fair number of patients from the Korea campaign, lots from Vietnam. Not as many as you would think from the latest, Desert Storm, etc. I spent 27 years in, but my orders to Afghanistan were cancelled at the last moment in anticipation of “draw-down;” so retirement was the viable path for me. Grateful for all those that gave so much, regardless of when and where.
