Default Hondo

Hondo, a John Wayne movie, one I have not seen.

My story.
In 1977, my half Irish brother got into a car accident.
He was left a parapolligic. Cripple from the waist down.
After a day in the local hospital, he was transferred to Boston General.
He was there for a few months.
During his time there, John Wayne came to Boston General for a lung operation.
I don't remember the details but after a few days, John Wayne got out of bed to visit the other patients.
My brother was one of those visits. John spoke to him for awhile and moved on.
JW did this for a few days before he was discharged.
My brother still has the autographed photo John gave him.
I am still envious of my brother, but only for this.
