Dealing With A Conscience Jane Hodge was a nurse during the Vietnam war. She talked about how sad she had become when a Vietnam returnee was brought into her ward in Ford Ord, and was physically scarred and emotionally scarred for life. The worst part was when these physically disfigured men came in, and the nurses were forced to call their parents and try to explain to them the condition their sons were in. She would explain to the families that the most important thing, when seeing their sons’ physical condition for the first time, was to make sure the first facial expression that the son saw had to be approval. If the son felt as if he wasn’t accepted any longer he might feel as if there was no point to live any more. Jane’s boyfriend, a major in the Army, was given orders to be sent to Vietnam. She decided that there was no way that she was just going to sit back and wait to be notified of his death. So, she decided that she would follow him there and request orders for Nam too.
