Famed trauma surgeon who was at Parkland Hospital when JFK and Gov. Connally were shot. He was on the team that attended to Connally.

James 'Red' Duke, iconic surgeon who started Life Flight, dies at 86

I met him once in an airport. My story is on FB for those "friends" of mine to read. He was humble, though many would excuse him for not being so.
..what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? let them take arms.
~~ Thomas Jefferson

War is where the government tells you who the bad guy is.
Revolution is when you decide that for yourself.
