just echoing what others have said. I recently went through the burn ward and the Intrepid center at BAMC. Jaw-dropping is an understatement. There are latest advancements borderline scifi.

Having said that, the patients show me the ultimate price to be paid, especially in SF. Bilateral amputees , over 95% burn, total care.... There are no mirrors on the burn ward.
