We just returned from a visit to our Nation's Capitol Washington D. C.  There, this past weekend we attended our oldest son's graduation from medical school at the Uniformed Services University of Health Sciences, the US military medical school.  Our son who graduated previously from West Point, is now promoted to Captain in the US Army and will do internship at Trippler Army Medical Center in Honolulu.  After that he will do residency and then deployment where the Army needs his services.  We were so impressed with the wonderful ceremony at the Constitution Hall in DC where the graduation took place.  The over 100 new physicians will go into the armed services:  Army, Air Force and Navy to serve our country.  We all pledged allegiance to the flag and then, at the end of the graduation, recited the Hippocratic Oath again.
