Quick story.
Back in the 80's as I was getting out of the Army, they sent us to Presidio to get our DD214, final shots, physicals, etc. We were there about 3 days (don't remember exactly). While there a few buddies and myself decided to walk around the city, take in a few sights (San Fran is a beautiful city if you've never been).
Well, one of my friends rolled his ankle steeping wrong off a curb and we heard an audible "pop." We took him over to a local clinic since we thought he had broken his ankle (turned out, no break just badly sprained with some ligament stretching). Anyway, while we are there waiting for our friend the rest of the group was treated to a true menagerie freak show where just one example was a guy getting wheeled in on a gurney and having all the techs and docs come by, lift the sheet, scratch their chins, hmmm and hawww then discuss like the old hekyl and jekyl scarecrows only to shake their heads and move on. Turns out the "guy" had a 60 watt lightbulb showed where it shouldn't have been and the docs were trying to figure out how to remove it without shattering the glass.
Needless to say, we collected our friend and went back to post ASAP, no more wiser, but more exposed to the weirdness of the world.
