Summary	In her six years at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Adele Levine rehabilitated combat-injured soldiers admitted in worse and worse shape. Working in a glassed-in gymnasium, Levine, her colleagues, and their patients were on display to tour groups, politicians, and celebrities. Days were intense, chaotic, consuming, and heartbreaking, but inside the fishbowl they were also filled with camaraderie and humor.
