My grandmother used to go with her church to visit the soldiers at Walter Reed. But she had to stop. Couldn't take it anymore. She was a nurse at Georgetown University Hospital for 30 years, and she had seen a lot. But seeing all of those boys coming back from Iraq -- hundreds of them, 19-, 20-, 21-year-olds -- all torn apart like that, it just broke her heart.
