US Army Corporal George Kritzman recounts the aftermath of what was his third combat wounding in the Korean War. A former LA police officer, Kritzman was under heavy sedation due to the severity of his leg injury, which was initially operated on at the 8055 MASH unit.

However, his ultimate goal was to make it back home to his wife and son, from who his thoughts were never far.
