The Secret History of Chemo Pt1

Host Dean Jernigan welcomes guest Kara Bultman of the Hobby Hoe Club, as he introduces a WWII medical story tied to the origins of chemotherapy, stemming from a poison-gas-related accident the government tried to conceal. The episode sets the scene in Bari, Italy, in 1943 lax blackout conditions and a party atmosphere before a surprise German air raid devastated the harbor, destroyed ships and cargo, caused thousands of casualties. Dean then profiles Lt. Col. Stuart Francis Alexander, a young physician recruited into Chemical Warfare Services, or should we say DOCTOR AMERICA!  Possibly THE most accomplished American to ever wear a uniform.
