註釋Lieutenant John Lee Wilton VI was born to privilege. He was raised in a fine home in a country club outside of Dallas. He had the best toys, the best clothes and went to the best schools. He worked hard and studied hard, that was what was expected by his loving parents. All this being said he did have one serious shortcoming. Living the life of the privileged he didn't come in contact with those that had to use common sense to survive. His common sense was severely lacking. It was this shortcoming that ruined his plans to go to Harvard to get his MBA and instead got him sent to Vietnam to get his DD214. Fortunately for him and the men under his command he was a quick study. He turned out to be a good platoon leader even though he didn't follow the rules as closely as perhaps he should have. He felt his job was to keep his men alive, at that he wasn't entirely successful. He never was able to forgive himself for that and spent the rest of his life trying to understand how he could have done things better. The twist and turns in his life led him to a unique solution for his acute combat stress (think PTSD). His solution probably wouldn't work for any other combat vet but it does show that if we look hard enough perhaps we can find a way that will work for us. V.E. Galt
