Yep, I'm 91 and still doing great.
Born in the French Congo in 1930.
Spent most of my life in Marseille as a trauma surgeon and became an US citizen in 1997.
Now live in SE Ohio.
Quoting: Doctor Congo Congrats! Were you at Brazzaville in the early '60s by any chance? No, safely in France by the early 50s. My most dangerous time was a brief visit to Vietnam during the 2nd Indo-China war around 1956. As part of my last year of medical school we were sent to help out and get experience. We didn't have MASH type tents, it was a real hospital but I was introduced to that kind of surgery and it convinced me that this was what I wanted to do. Marseille is the roughest city in France, always a lot of trauma situations. My father was from Marseille. Just as well for you.  An ugly piece of work that was.
