Hukle was put on a stretcher next to the ambulance, and Devlin was examined while lying in the back of the truck. Dr. Mueller thought the injuries didn’t look too serious. But the diagnosis didn’t satisfy Childers or the members of PTS Team B. They took the station wagon and the PTS truck, departed for the hospital in Conway, about twenty-five miles to the south—and, amid the confusion, left Hukle on the stretcher beside the ambulance.
I hope he doesn't die or anything -- I would feel awkwardly guilty about laughing at this if he dies, even though all these events are older than I am.
