[ music ] Untold Stories saluting our Vietnam Veterans, continues now. Christmas in a hospital. How strange it seemed to be. Its not a physical ailment, but an ailment thats called ptsd. 46 years later, Doug Alexander still carries the burden of war.

Really none of us. Understood why we were there. But we were sent there to do a job, and we were trying to do it. And i know that those people tried just as hard as the next guy.

Yesterday in the topics they cover. Help me not focus on it. On the militia side there are proiranian militia sides. I cant say the division of iraqis and mobilization. I agree with you.

So we can get benefit of some of the shia who were fighting definite way. This brings me back to the story. If our share of the government has not been in iraq. This is only one.

Yes, there is a solution. There is an option. But there is much work to be done. Thank you very much
Than 226 billion a year, including 153 billion in costs to medicare and medicaid. These costs will skyrocket as the baby boom generation ages. Already our nations most costly disease, alzheimers is projected to cost more than 1. 1 2050 if nothing is done to change its current trajectory. Alzheimers is also one of our nations leading causes of death. The cdc lists alzheimers as the sixth leading cause of death overall, and the fifth leading cause of death for those 65 and older. Other estimates put the mortality rate much higher at number three, right behind cancer and Heart Disease. Moreover and most frustrating alzheimers is the only one of our nations deadliest diseases without an effective means of prevention, treatment or a cure.
