Mil health care just saved the day for us. 10 weeks ago the 13 yr old busted both leg bones just above the ankle at 2100 on a Saturday night. The Mrs took him to the nearest local civ hospital. They jacked him up on morphine and said come back tomorrow when we have an ortho on duty. The kid is writhing in agony. The Mrs asks about another hospital specializing in kids -- no guy on duty. The Mrs calls the Naval Hosp -- "we're sending an ambulance immediately". Ortho on call, meets them, sets break -- exceptional follow up care. Cost = zero.
