What a horrible way to go, including "person on fire" as part of the original report. Very sorry for the loss by both families.
My dad was chief of surgery at the Army hospital in Hawaii during the late 60's-early 70's. and he told me then that the #1 source of his trauma patients was those injured in Vietnam, and the #2 source was off-duty soldiers (generally in Hawaii) who wrecked their motorcycles.
I know they're great fun and all, but holy cow, the consequences... (especially for young guys in their early 20's who haven't yet learned how to ride smart).
