THE LETTER YOU WAITED A LIFE TIME FOR My uncle was a doctor and always had wanted to be on the battle field. He was always telling us how to clean a battle wound and dress it etc, he even had a collection of battlefield medical gear. Several months before his 92nd birthday, he received a letter from Uncle Sam inviting him to join the army as a physician. He died a few months later, probably from the joy of knowing he had a good future ahead of himself. |
