An American Patriot

One of our own has signed up and is now deployed. He didn't have to go, he's not poor or uneducated. He signed up because his country needed him.

He's a personal friend and he's an American patriot.

America needs more people like Doc Dutch.

It awesome to hear doctors volunteering their skills to help our troops recover overseas. Good on him!

Here in Jacksonville, we have had a couple doctors from our Trauma center volunteer their time as well. Great people.
