I will look for it......but this is the one that got to me. I passed through Camp Zama after being wounded.....so I can connect to what I saw there. I was very lucky...extremely lucky....blessed even.....not so, way too many I saw there.

About thirty years later at Johns Hopkin's delivering a Burn Patient while flying EMS......I helped the Medical Crew push the Patient into the facility and we were directed straight to the "Tub Room".

As we turned into the Tub Room....my Crew noted my countenance was not as it should be and asked if I was okay. I was not.....and there was no one being treated when we entered the room. The mere sight of the Tubs was all it took to bring back memories I wish I do not have.

I know what Hell is like....I have seen it here on Earth. Even as only a witness to other's real torment....you carry those sights and sounds with you forever.
