maybe 2 years of ant-malaria medication from his Vietnam tours had a long term anti-viral effect. Who knows ?

God bless him! I’m very glad he is recovering.

"I have a leaky heart valve in one lung ..." and
"... back in San Diego in Humboldt County, California ." ?
Glad the guy is okay. I would check to see if he still has a fever.
My leaky heart valve is located in my heart, not my lung. Last I heard San Diego is in San Diego County. I'm not aware of a San Diego in Humboldt County.

As an 86-year old KW Marine, I 100% agree with this gentleman with a caviat...
He was trained (as was I) to survive adversity... That training has paid off for most old jarheads throughout their lives...
However, in the present era, the Marine Corps emphasizes training to accomplish & survive "diversity" more than to survive "adversity"...

“it kept getting worse and worse and I had trouble breathing and I couldn’t walk very far.”
Glad he made it.
