HEYJUDE > Nurses are supposed to make things better We each have that inherent trait inside that Wants to ‘make it better’ Your leg was gone, or was it both legs? It was hard, so very hard To make things better. What could I say To make you want to Live and not die? To give you the will to embrace life? There were questions, there was anxiety And many sleepless nights, you slowly shared Your greatest fears. ‘I can live without my legs, but I cannot live without her! Will she still love me.. and see me as her man? How can I stand tall again’ It has been years since you set that question as A prayer and a plea before me. I have prayed and prayed and want to say I pray for your healing. No, it will give you back your legs, Your arms, your sight, or even peaceful dreams. Laying down the bitter load will free you to Smile at a child’s laughter, Reach out to a wounded heart, Lift up your face to God and let the unanswered Questions… rest in Him.

HEYJUDE > What can i say?? The photo
quietly screams

HEYJUDE > A Piece of My Heart photo

HEYJUDE > The still of the night
"calm my aching heart"

HEYJUDE > I am proud to be an American
and to have served the men who died for this flag

HEYJUDE > A Piece of My Heart photo

HEYJUDE > ROBERT VAN PACK..my Friend

HEYJUDE > Howard..a veteran.. a friend served near Phu Hiep and
Tuy Hoa

HEYJUDE > Freedom's just another word for nothing' left to lose: Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free. Feeling good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues. Feeling good was good enough for me; Good enough for me and Bobby McGee.

HEYJUDE > 1959-1975.....FALL OF SAIGON....A sad day in history

HEYJUDE > started singin' bye bye Miss American Pie Drove my chevy to the levee But the levee was dry And them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye Singin' this'll be the day that I die This'll be the day that I die.

HEYJUDE > Now troubles are many, they're as deep as a well.
I can swear there ain't no heaven but I pray there ain't no hell.
Swear there ain't no heaven and I pray there ain't no hell,
But I'll never know by living, only my dying will tell.
Yes only my dying will tell.
Yeah, only my dying will tell.

HEYJUDE > LT COL. ANNIE RUTH GRAHAM..my chief nurse..91st Evac Hospital ..Phu Hiep..Tuy Hoa

HEYJUDE > In the Still of the night

HEYJUDE > A Piece of My Heart photo

HEYJUDE > And any time you feel the pain, hey, Jude, refrain
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

HEYJUDE > Oh, and as I watched him on the stage
My hands were clenched in fists of rage
No angel born in hell Could break that Satan's spell
And as the flames climbed high into the night
To light the sacrifical rite
I saw Satan laughing with delight
The day the Music Died

HEYJUDE > But I'm strong
Strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

HEYJUDE > THE SOUNDS OF SILENCE...WERE SILENT SCREAMS IN THE NIGHT

HEYJUDE > So take a good look at my face; You'll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer, it's easy to trace the tracks of my tears

HEYJUDE > A long long time ago
I can still remember how
That music used to make me smile

HEYJUDE > We had joy we had fun we had
Seasons in the sun
But the wine and the songs like the
Seasons have all gone

HEYJUDE > And while Lenin read a book on Marx
The quartet practiced in the park
And we sang dirges in the dark
The day the music died

HEYJUDE > I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again

HEYJUDE > We gotta get out of this place

If it's the last thing we ever do

HEYJUDE > Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And don't criticize
What you can't understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command

HEYJUDE > Now the half-time air was sweet perfume
While sergeants played a marching tune
We all got up to dance
Oh, but we never got the chance
'Cause the players tried to take the field
The marching band refused to yield
Do you recall what was revealed
The day the music died?

HEYJUDE > And when the broken hearted people
Living in the world agree,
There will be an answer, let it be.
For though they may be parted there is
Still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be.
Let it be, let it be. yeah
There will be an answer, let it be.

HEYJUDE > It's just no good anymore since you went away
Now I spend my time just makin' rhymes of yesterday
One is the loneliest number ...

HEYJUDE > And while Lenin read a book on Marx The quartet practiced in the park And we sang dirges in the dark The day the music died

HEYJUDE > The man on the right was a man undone the man on the left like a prize unwon. And God only knows what their time will bring or what will become of the man in between.... Neil Diamond

HEYJUDE > and when I die, and when I'm gone,
There'll be one child born
In this world to carry on,
to carry on.

HEYJUDE > While the light fades from sight,
And the stars gleaming rays softly send,
To thy hands we our souls, Lord, commend.

HEYJUDE > Day is done, gone the sun,
From the lake, from the hills, from the sky;
All is well, safely rest, God is nigh.

HEYJUDE > F -100 ...SUPER SABRE PILOT..MY FRIEND

HEYJUDE > Memories light the corner of my mind.
Misty water color memories

Memories may be beautiful and yet,
What's too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget.

HEYJUDE > "THREE " ..IS STILL "NOT IN".....ONE OF THE MANY MIA..MY FRIEND LARRY WHITFORD

HEYJUDE > LAWRENCE W. WHITFORD..MISTY FAC
you made me so very happy
I'm so glad you came into my life
Larry was a good friend

HEYJUDE > Memories light the corner of my mind.
Misty water color memories
Of the way we were.

Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind,
Smiles we gave to one another
For the way we were.

HEYJUDE > But not a word was spoken
The church bells all were broken
And the three men I admire most
The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost
They caught the last train for the coast
The day the music died

HEYJUDE > can it be that it was all so simple then??
Or has time rewritten every line??

HEYJUDE > And when one of us is gone
And one of us is left to carry on
Then remembering will have to do
Our memories alone will get us through
Think about the days of me and you
Of you and me against the world

HEYJUDE > Some folks are born made to wave the flag,
Ooh, they're red, white and blue.
And when the band plays "Hail to the chief",
Ooh, they point the cannon at you, Lord,

It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no senator's son, son.
It ain't me, it ain't me; I ain't no fortunate one, no,

HEYJUDE > Long as I remember The rain been comin' down.
Clouds of myst'ry pourin' Confusion on the ground.
Good men through the ages, Tryin' to find the sun;
And I wonder, Still I wonder, Who'll stop the rain.

HEYJUDE > The road is long With many a winding turn That leads us to who knows where Who knows when

HEYJUDE > If I could read your mind love
What a tale your thoughts could tell
Just like a paperback novel
The kind that drugstores sell
When you reach the part where the heartaches come
The hero would be me
But heroes often fail
And you won't read that book again
Because the ending's just too hard to take...Gordon Lightfoot

HEYJUDE > Don't go around tonight,
Well, it's bound to take your life,
There's a bad moon on the rise.

HEYJUDE > WHERE HAVE ALL THE FLOWERS GONE????????????????????

HEYJUDE > Delta Dawn, what's that flower you have on Could it be a faded rose from days gone by And did I hear you say he was a-meeting you here today To take you to his mansion in the sky...A rose for you Vince

HEYJUDE > A Piece of My Heart photo

HEYJUDE > Whoa, thought it was a nightmare,
Lo, it's all so true,
They told me, "Don't go walkin' slow
'Cause Devil's on the loose."
Better run through the jungle,
Better run through the jungle,

HEYJUDE > A Piece of My Heart photo

HEYJUDE > Nurse at Women Memorial

HEYJUDE > Kris..my son, reflecting at the Vietnam Wall

HEYJUDE > A Piece of My Heart photo

HEYJUDE > There's something happening here

And what it is ain't exactly clear

There's a man with a gun over there

Telling me that I've got to beware

HEYJUDE > Nurse at Women Memorial

HEYJUDE > Did you ever know that you're my hero,
and ev'rything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.
