What made me finally do it was your column asking to hear from doctors or nurses who had married their patients or the other way around. Well, I happen to be a patient who married my nurse. Here's my story. I served in the Vietnam War and was company commander with the 173rd Airborne Brigade.

In March 1967, I was woundied. Seven years later, I married a nurse who had been assigned to the evacuation hospital and took care of me. I often tell people Mary was the only good thing that came out of that war. We have been married for 23 years and are very happy. You don't remember, I'm but I certainly do remember you, Ann.

Thiry years ago, in May 1967, was the last guy you visted in the Long Bien Surrical Hospital in Saigon. (our transportation was relayed, so you were stuck with me for about half an hour. I loved talking to you. It has taken me until now to thank you for halfway around the world, all the way to Vietnam, to cheer up the men who were hospitalized. I'm sure many others who received nasty wounds in that war remember your visit, too.

This is a sincere thanks!" to let you know that many of us don't forget nice things and nice people. ED PRIVETTE, MAJOR, U.S. ARMY (RET.) LACOOCHEE, FLA. DEAR MAJ. PRIVETTE: Thanks for the memories.

That trip to Vietnam in May was well worth the effort even though it was (113 degrees. I cannot recall anything in my career that was as rewardling. Dear Ann Landers: My sister, "Ellen," and her husband have been mar- died for 10 years. They have two children. Ellen feels somewhat inferior because her husband's sisters have five land six children apiece.

Whenever Ellen is asked how many children she has, she says, "We have five two with us and three in heaven." Actually, Ellen has had three miscarriages, each within the first eight weeks of pregnancy. She didn't even go to the hospidal. Would you consider those losses "children?" ROBINSON, ILL. DEAR ROBINSON: I do not consider miscarriages children. If your sister chooses to, however, it does not bother me in the least and it shouldn't bother you either.
