Autorenporträt
I AM A "PROUD"U.S. ARMY VETERANThis book records forensic and anatomical pathology at the 9th Medical Laboratory in Saigon from April 1967 to April 1968 of the Vietnam War. I have also included photographs and information from 9th Medical Laboratory Veterinarian Captain Warren D. Myers, 7th Surgical Hospital Surgeon Captain Thomas W. Brady, and MACV-SOG Navy Physician Lieutenant Richard P. Ganchan.The 9th Medical Laboratory did all autopsies and surgical pathology cases for U.S. Forces. The most common autopsy (over 40%) was the result of a helicopter accident that flew at top-speed at tree-top level to avoid enemy fire. Most of the remaining demonstrate the stress of combat with suicides, murders, fake injuries, and accidents.Unfortunately, I did not keep pathology practice notes and photographs since they were sent to the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology (AFIP) in Washington, D.C. This book is written from my personal notes, letters, and photographs.This is the only book written about pathology and veterinarian medicine during the Vietnam War. However, it is not the first book about medicine in the Vietnam war. In 2017, my Indiana University School of Medicine classmate, Nephrologist Captain James Donadio, Jr. published an excellent book, From Mayo Clinic to Vietnam: Memoirs of a Physician Serving in the War.
