#4thofjuly2022 A 🧵. I come from a military family. My father wanted to go to medical school, but his parents were Yiddish speaking USSR immigrants who came to Ellis Island. He couldn’t afford to go.
So when he was 18 he enlisted. He was a child prodigy and graduated from high school at 14 and college at 18. He loved the #ARMY . It has always been a great source of pride for him.
He stayed in the #Army and did neurosurgery residency at Walter Reed. We moved to The Presido in San Francisco when it was still a military base and lived there.
