I am writing in regards to the crosswalks on the south side of base, especially the one between the medical clinic and bowling alley and the one between the post office and Service Credit Union.

Recently, I took my child to the E.R. at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center. Shortly after we arrived, a higher ranking nurse walked in with her child. Her baby was not crying because of pain, while my baby was shaking and screaming. We were waiting for about five minutes when she was called back first, before the people who were waiting longer. Ninety minutes later, we finally saw the doctor. I feel I was treated unfairly because this woman was higher ranking.
