Iraq first gulf war!

Recommended Posts

Here's a picture of me and a friend 10hrs after desert shield turn to desert storm finishing triage on Iraqi soldiers, 15th Evacuation Hospital-18th Airborne Corp! Some of you might recognize the name of the hospital as the place where General Patton slapped that soldier suffering from what we now know as PTSD!

Garvin- I'm the short one:)

Thanks' everyone I was going thru my pictures and saw this all kinds of emotions started to come fourth! I spent 7 months over there and made several great friends to include my best friend! Air medic had me busy for weeks on end but made the time pass. This hospital could hold and treat 420 people and was updated just a year before the Gulf War started!
