My father was a corpsman in the navy during Vietnam. For those that don't know, if you were in the Navy during 'Nam, you were safe, unless you were a Marine or a corpsman. Corpsman are those dudes with all of the tubing and chest suction gear trying to patch up guys that just took shrapnel to the chest, a medic.

One day assignment came up for my old man and three other corpsman; Two spots on an ocean survey vessel, two spots in the shit. So they drew straws. My dad got a lucky draw and ended up on a scientific survey vessel giving inoculations to sailors with VD for the remainder of his service. The two that drew short were killed in battle.

My entire existence is predicated on that one game of chance.
