Angels Amid the Enemy: The Untold Story of Medical Care of Vietnam’s Forgotten Civilian Victims – one session on Wednesday, April 3, 3:30 to 5 p.m. at the Rio Verde Community Center Multi-Purpose Room. Cost is $14. Instructor is Dr. Richard Carlson.
There were more than one million civilian casualties during the Vietnam war. Many were women and children. These are the war’s forgotten victims. Teams of doctors from the U.S. and other countries have worked in primitive hospitals to provide solace, reinforced by American volunteer physicians helping strangers in the distant land with no reward except humanity for their efforts.
“These ‘angels’ selflessly gave their skills – and often their blood to victims of war and disease,” Carlson said.
