When Henry VIII dissolved the monasteries, there were many hospitals around London - and the rest of the UK. These essentially all disappeared; three only were left in London, and Barts was the only lone that served patients continuously over the centuries (until now). There's a statue of Henry over the main doorway into the hospital, a series of buildings on a crowded footprint.

My son, Bart, who has SSADH is shown brushing the horse, Ben, he rides during his therapeutic horseback lessons.
It's a strange feeling to be watching the BART protests, which are quickly turning into riots, and suddenly you see Frank's mug up on the screen. You usually see Frank at more light hearted protests with his 12 Galaxy signs, but seeing him in front of a burning police car just seems so weird.

BTW, here is a good video with more info on the riots.
Bart Smith was one of the Veterans that was in our documentary "We Can't Forget Vietnam". The raw way he spoke about his time in Vietnam evoked deep emotions in everyone that was in the room with him. After his interview he asked his friend Bill Mahon to try to find his one true love, Lynn, whom he married and divorced 45 years earlier. Bart suffered from PTSD and neither he or Lynn were equipped at the time to deal with it when they first married in 1972. Bill was able to find Lynn. He sent her a copy of the documentary. After watching it she called Bart....and the rest is history. On Veteran's Day 2017 they were married, again. My heart is so full...I could not have imagined what would have come from such a humble project. Read more about their story here:
