  Awesome historical detail, Duncan126...thanks! I don't suppose Mr. Hakes recalls who made this image??

  The soldier on the stretcher is my brother Bob Lee, Jr. He was a LT.. Bob lives in Tampa FL with his wife and is retired. and does not talk about this experience. The guy in the front right was LTC Schroder, CO of the 2nd Bn., 39th Inf. LTC Schroder was later KIA. They named a FSB after him in the Plain of Reeds. Special thanx to Cliff Schultz.

  The poor man in the first bed looks a though holding a parasol is the last thing he should be doing :-(

  You'll notice too that each man is tucked neatly away under his sheet and blankets, which are all precisely folded and tucked under the mattress. Not a wrinkle or an uneven edge to be seen anywhere! Precise nursing technique to be sure! I wonder if they were carried outside and back in again while still lying in their beds? Looking closer at the patient in the last bed, farthest from the camera, he seems to have his covers draped across some sort of "tenting" device or blanket cradle, to keep the covers from putting undue pressure on his legs. Could be to keep the blankets and sheet from resting directly on a painful wound, a burn, or even a lost leg.
