abstract: At this hospital in Germany, doctors not only serve as medical professionals but also military officers on whom many rely for leadership and confidence during wartime. Landstuhl Regional Medical Center is a healthcare world all its own, and injured U.S. soldiers are finding it a welcome sanctuary where healing takes place.
