The Bob Edwards Show, Stories from Third Med: Surviving a Jungle ER, May 28, 2012

It's been more than forty years since thousands of American troops died fighting in the jungles of Vietnam. For this Memorial Day, we pay tribute to our service members with an encore presentation of our award-winning show "Stories from Third Med: Surviving a Jungle ER." The documentary includes stories of the Navy's Third Medical Battalion, which served alongside the Third Marine Division. They were based near the DMZ, closest to the enemy in North Vietnam. Four decades later, the doctors and corpsmen recount the horror (and humor) they can never forget, and reflect on the forces that drives humanity to war in the first place.
