1. I'm watching too.
Dave has read Woodruff's book and is clearly in awe of the guy and his whole ordeal.

2. He's focusing for obvious reasons on the survival rates and doesn't want
to opine on the general clusterfuck...not that I can blame him. It's good that he recovered in any case.

3. What a beautiful man and beautiful inspiring family.
I hope that he finds his ordeal to be worth the trauma when it is all forgotten by the public.

5. Yep. Not that I would begrudge him one second of the care he got,
it's just a damn shame all the injured troops don't seem to be equal beneficiaries. And of course there are our classmates who came back from Viet Nam in far worse condition. :-(

9. Woodruff is incredible.
It's hard to believe he's doing so well so soon after such a traumatic injury.
