    A deep well of knowledge, certainly more than what little I was aware of before:
    • "Christian Scientists" - with their anti-transfusion positions often leading in the 1960s court ordered transfusions for minor children.
    • Amish and Mennonites - with their claims of living like people of the Bible did
    • Selective medical malpractices
      • Vaccine development - the early polio disaster from poor quality control
      • Food as medicine
    I remain convinced that there have not been enough generations from the Dark Ages and today. As a species that wages war on ourselves, much to my lament on this "Memorial Day" holiday:

    Memorial Day at Arlington National Cemetery ... features public wreath-laying ceremonies, the placement of American flags on every grave by military volunteers, a Presidential address, and opportunities for the public to place flowers at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

    Mom and Dad's grave marker is in Arlington. I remember seeing the flags being put on every grave and later, picked up. My last duty station was next to Arlington and our twice a year physical fitness test involved running along 1/4 mile segment of its boundary wall.
