The oldest of these had been in the Spanish American war of 1898. He was around 100 years old in 1978. The youngest was a Vietnam Vet who had been playing around with a pool stick and rough housing at a bar . He had stuck the pool stick in his nose and someone had bumped into him pushing the pool stick into his brain. He could talk and walk ok but did have some serious medical problems. He was maybe 30 in 1978. I had drawn pictures of the patients there made from photos taken by a very talented photographer. They had hung these up by the patient's door.
