But it was Al's time serving with the 348th General Hospital as a Hospital Corpsman during the Vietnam era that drew him to want to get involved with the Tri-State Veterans Memorial Fund. Al has seen first hand the effects of combat had on our veterans, especially the mentally wounded ones which can be an injury just as traumatic as the physically wounded ones.
