5.  There is a heart-wrenching account from a military nurse at Walter Reed regarding the wounded soldiers returning from Iraq.  There are folks from this group in the Boston area who would come to NH to speak, maybe something to consider for LRPJ to sponsor, possibly with the Carroll County folks?
