He and other NFL guys, came to Clark hospital in the Philippines when I was there in 1972. Just in and out but I will never forget them taking the time to come visit the soldiers, sailors, airmen who were there. This was at a time when so many were cussing us. NOTE: I was there for a knee problem and was not wounded in Viet Nam. Many of the guys were. Seeing those guys with no leg/legs, etc.. made me know just how unimportant my knee problems were. That thought has carried with me the rest of my life. No matter what your problem, there are folks whose issues make yours insignificant.
