European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - February 23, 1986, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Sunday february 23, 1986 the stars and stripes 1  Landers dear Ann Landers 1 have Little regard for doctors and they have no regard for us their patients. So where do we go from Here you Call them up because you need help. It s either their Day off they arc j with a patient they y arc in the Hospital they Are delivering a paper at a medical meeting in Paris or Geneva they had an emergency or they Are out to lunch. You ask them to Call you Back. They never do. You arrive for your appointment five minutes Early and Are kept waiting an hour or More. The nurse says he had an Emer  want to Call her a liar in the Hospital they poke their Heads in the door and say cheerfully Good morn ing How Are you doing that Exchange is considered a consultation for which you will receive a Bill for $50. I have read articles and heard lectures on How to talk to your  some of these lectures Are pretty Good but we need to know How to catch our doctor before we can talk to him. Any suggestions . I use the male gender because i find this problem is much More common among male physicians than females. Sick of getting kicked around in Philadelphia dear ski the game is changing. We Are heading into an Era when we will be faced with a surplus of doctors. This Means Competition will be Keener there will be less vacationing fewer papers delivered in Paris and Geneva and less waiting in reception rooms if you Don t feel that your physician is Heinz you proper care get another doctor. The government is getting into the act More and More and you know Whit that Means. The Quality of medical care will not be As Good hut More people a Fol get something. Dear Ann Landers i was sexually abused actually raped by my Mother s Boyfriend when i was 5.1 am now 27. Three years ago i finally got in Tho courage to Tell my Mother one refused to believe me said it must have been a dream but i remember the pain the threats and recall very clearly the place that incident happened. Several months after i told her mom was still seeing Uncle ale died of a heart attack. The Day of the funeral i told my Hus band what Uncle Al had done to me. He became extremely angry that i had not told him before. Now every time the subject of child abuse comes up i want to break into tears and scream my lungs out. Lately our sex life has been infrequent and unsatisfactory. Could this incident be having a delayed effect on me will i Ever forget that i was once a rape victim i want to Lead a Normal life but i can t. I need your help Ann. Page 11 letters in Case you re wondering about the toilet paper. The Sun was creeping Over the horizon and it was going to be a Beautiful Day. Since \ worked with a High Speed unit 1 was prepared for another demanding Day As a combat support Soldier. However i could never have anticipated an assignment like Mission  my no took me aside at 7 . And said "pfc., your Mission should you Man age to overcome All the inadequacies of the transportation system is to dispatch a vehicle and secure some desperately needed Toi let paper. As you Are aware Many have tried and failed. I Don t need to remind you of the importance of this Mission. You know the troop morale is at an All time Low and there is a great Deal of irritation. Should you fail at this Mission Don t worry. You will at least begin to understand Why people lose their motivation to accomplish a task due to obstacles created by policy  in Kentucky dear Kentucky i Don t know How Many times i have to say this before it soaks in but Here i go again. Anyone who has been raped or abused a Ebud needs intensive coun Euni to recover. An experience of such of cannot be swept under the Rug. The death of the mouser does t mean the problem is old memories often Hae to be pulled Dollfe Fanny service association your Day Sun your police department help a s3 around you. Implore you to get it. By 8 . I had found a to who met the criteria for approval eaten Chow and was at the motor Pool. The motor Pool personnel said to wait for the no in charge of Dis Patching the vehicles. I explained the importance of my Mission. The personnel then informed me that 1 was in the  and said there Are certain prescribed rules set Down by the policy makers which must be followed explicitly. The no in charge will dispatch the vehicle when he arrives. Until then stand  at 8 45 the no made a Brief appear Ance and told me to stand by. At 9 . I was informed my vehicle needed a few minor repairs and i should stand by. At 10 . Ink was finally flowing. I was be Elm exuberant at the Prospect of accomplishing my Mission. At 10 30 the 10 level technical inspection to20 level to maintenance pics preventive maintenance checks and serv More about fighting terrorism a number of letters appearing in the stars and stripes lately have been Bombas tic in their attacks on libyan Leader col. Moa mar khad Afy. The letters appraisals of khad Afy i actions and statements As the Bead of the libyan government Are deserved. I share their View that anyone who voices support for terrorist actions or equates the recent Rome and Vienna Airport terrorists to George Washington and american revolutionaries deserves to be scorned and re , Many recent letters seem to feel that because of his actions and words the . Government should intervene militarily to halt libyan state supported terror ism. Some have even gone so far As to Sug Gest that khad Afy be assassinated. I feel these letters express several mis conceptions. First the us. Must direct any actions at the Ter wrists themselves not their sponsors. Libya is not the Only government that directly or indirectly sponsors terrorism. Syria Iraq Iran and Nicaragua have All supported terrorists in the form of Supply ing weapons training and Refuge. Political reasons prevent us from blacking these countries except for Nicaragua. Let us not forget the sponsor of these coun tries excepting Iran the soviet Union. Would the readers have us attack the soviets i think not. The terrorists do not solely rely on Libya thus a military strike against Libya would serve no purpose. A second misconception that has been inferred if not expressed is that the United states has an obligation to redress All wrongs worldwide. This belief in ludicrous. The american stand against terrorism in the Middle East sounds great but the fact remains that we Are relatively impotent in our Effort to stamp it  should certainly strike at the terrorists when we Are afforded the Opportunity As we did so successfully with the Achille Lauro Hijacker but we must not let our isolated successes cause us to lash out wildly. I believe that is what the previous letters have advocated an irrational response. The third reason i feel direct . Mili tary action against the libyans is wrong is that it furthers our third world image As hypocrites. We strike at terrorists in the Middle East and Europe but we Wink at the terrorism conducted by right Wing death squads in Guatemala and Honduras and especially in Al  right Wing nationalist zealots sup ported financially by the Way by our own misguided right Wing zealots in the United states systematically stalk and assassinate All those who differ from their own narrow beliefs. Our government provides those countries with military and economic Aid. We also ignore the terrorism the Irish Republican  commits in Northern Ireland. Because of the influence of some Irish catholics in the United states we allow massive financial and logistical sup port to flow from the United states to the Ira causing untold numbers of terrorist the United states must be evenhanded if it is to make a credible stand against terror  understand the emotion the previous letter writers Felt vengeance. However i believe the rational person would temper that raw emotion with something More important reason. Jeffrey a. Simpson wed necked Germany i would ilk pan Palt from All Over in world.
